Thanks ,

But as i metioned in my previous post, we're looking for the way to rebuild
a distribution for high performance computing that base upon SuSE
architecture.
The whole thing is not so simple as you consider , i mean just simply use
autoyast or add some rpm packages doesn't work for us.
If you guys ever checked the famous Rocks Cluster, you'll know what i mean.
Rocks is the rebuild base upon latest RHEL. So we're looking for the way to
rebuild a distribution like ROCKS cluster but base upone SLES/opensuse
architecture, because i do think that YaST2 and many feature of SuSE will do
better than RHEL to help us setup a large scale high computing cluster
system.

Rocks Cluster - San Diego Supercomputer Center (

Regards,

SuSE has certain
