I do have a bunch of these running reliably (RH 7.3 plus the latest OpenMosix kernel). I had to go through a few combinations of motherboard and RAM (four different manufacturers of RAM) before I got something that works. Processors are MP 1900+ or 2000+, boards are Tyan S2466, memory is in PC2100 ECC registered 512MB sticks from Corsair. Case and power supply are PC Power and Cooling, mid tower, 450W PS, every fan bay filled. These machines have been rock stable for months except for a failed IBM deathstar drive and an over-temp shutdown when the room AC failed.
I still have a couple of the 760MP boards (as opposed to the MPX boards) which I just can't get to run properly with two processors.
