Have you tried with Perceus? Simple .deb package install for deb and you have a stateless cluster in like 5 minutes.

I have installed gcc and cpp 3.4.6-5.
check with:
gcc --version
cpp --version

try:
sudo aptitude install gcc-3.4 cpp-3.4

or search here:

Noval,
checks the version of cpp and gcc, I had a similar problem and solved it by installing the correct version of these libraries.

[...] guide is an evolution from this original guide. Unless the Kerrighed Team comes up with a substantially different version, this is the only update [...]

Hi, my english is poor, so discuss in spanish:

Primero, darte las gracias por el material publicado, y ahora hacer una correcciones, o por lo menos en mi caso fueron necesarias:

1 - en el paso 9:
el nombre del archivo en lugar de ser /var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/ABC65 debería ser 0A0B0C65, yo use la ip 10.0.0.11 entonces mi archivos se llamaba 0A00000B.
Cuando se crea el archivo en la linea
APPEND console=tty1 root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=10.11.12.1:/nfsroot/kerrighed ip=dhcp rw session_id=1
en lugar de poner ip=dhcp escribir ip=10.X.X.X.

2 - en el paso 11:
al escribir la linea
/nfsroot/kerrighed 10.11.12.0/255.255.255.0(rw,no_subtree_check,async,no_root_squash) la dirección ip debería ser del servidor y no de la red, quedaría 10.11.12.1.

3- el el paso 20:
un detalle pequeño, al crear el directorio con mkdir /configs la letra “s” de configs no va, es sólo /config.

Great howto, I’m attempting it with AMD64, please be aware that the debootstrap did not work for my install. There was a missing - in the first option and for some reason i needed the trailing slash on the /nfsroot/kerrighed ie. debootstrap --arch i386 /nfsroot/kerrighed/

Again thanks!
