Welcome to The Limulus Project ™

Project Status

July 31, 2008: Although there has been little update on this page, we have been busy with the software. Our goal is to have a Fedora 8 spin ready by the end of August 2008. We will also be adding our complete set of spec files plus out build/install scripts to our source tree. We will also host {S}RPMS at this time as well. Staring in September we will be working on packaging issues (i.e a case). In the mean time you can get more background from our re-print (draft actually) of our  Limulus Article (pdf) in the November 2007 Issue of  Linux Magazine (It has not made it to the Linux Magazine website yet).

January 1, 2008: The Trac page is up and running. The next step is to get the Wiki and Milestones completed. There is now a hardware manifest and pictures for the The Norbert Limulus Cluster.

What is the Limulus Project?

The Limulus project goal is to create and maintain an open specification and software stack for a personal cluster. Ideally, a user should be able to build a small personal cluster using the Limulus reference design and low cost hardware. In addition, a freely available turn-key Linux based software stack will be created and maintained for use on the Limulus design.
