A new distribution designed which communicates computers so that they can work in parallel

,----[ Quote ]
| This is how the first version of ABC 
| GNU/Linux arose, which was in trial phase 
| by April 2009. It involved a free software 
| based distribution (Ubuntu), live as well 
| as installable, capable of automatically 
| configuring a cluster of up to 254 
| computers. Mr CastaÃos gives an example as 
| to how it works: "100 PCs are purchased 
| and my DVD is inserted into one of these 
| and booted, either from the DVD or 
| installed in the hard disc itself. This 
| computer and the rest of the machines are 
| connected together by a switch (a device 
| that acts like a router). When the rest of 
| the machines are booted and, using a BIOS 
| (basic in/out system), as when specifying 
| which device is to be booted, they are 
| told what to do by means of the network 
| card. All are booted from the DVD itself -
| or the hard disc if installed -, 
| registered, and connections are created 
| between them". Any user who knows how to 
| programme can do this; it is not necessary 
| to know how to administer systems.
