There are so many. Anyhow, the text that originally came with these alphas identified them as "DEC Alpha Multia AXP 166." When I had installed RedHat 4.2 on one of these alphas a couple of years ago, I was using the "noname" image. On Wilko's RC status page, I see both AXPpci33 (noname) and I see Multia/UDB, which is a bit confusing to me. I'd just love to know what kind of wierd ass alpha I have. :) On a related side-note, has there been any clustering with FreeBSD? These alphas that I have are dreadfully nasty mind-numbingly slow, so I'd love to cluster the pair together. Is Beowulf only for Linux?
