Hi David,

I'm running 2 clusters based on SL4.2 right now, but not with the 
hardware configuration you have specified.. I'm running Sun Opterons 
with a SVN checkout of trunk oscar 5.0 (unreleased unstable, and a bad 
idea), and a bunch of Dell and other Pentium (32 bit) running Oscar 
4.2.  Both are working pretty well, except for stuff that needs fixing 
in trunk oscar 5.0 as of January. (I'm planning on upgrading to 5.0 when 
it's released) (the 5.0 cluster is #65 on the oscar register)

Sort of an off-question response, but maybe useful..
