some problem about install on cluster
 

Hi:
Friends. We are working on set up a linux cluster with 50 PCs. We want to know how to install redhat linux 9 onto each machines.
need i to install linux one by one.
Regards

well firslty don't use redhat 9, why would you want to do that? it's 4 years obselete... use rhel 4.4 / 5.0 or centos 4.4 / 5.0 if you want a new equivaent.

secondly look at kickstart, which can build a personalised redhat installation from a configuration file. you can also use a pxe boot server to provide this over a network alogn with the installation files so you'd only need to run the pc's on, plug in a network cable and they'll do the rest automaticlaly.

Thank you very much!
We are going to perfrome the parallel computation on the cluster.
by the way ,what is the pxe boot server

if you genuinely are clustering boxes then really there's no point installing on the machiens themselves at all. i'd suggest making them boot to a network if it's possible, then they never need an installation process at all.
