Instant-Grid is a Knoppix-based live-CD bundled with a pre-configured '''grid-environment''' based on the '''Globus-Toolkit'''. One PC started from this CD becomes the Instant-Grid frontend. It also functions as a PXE boot-server, allowing further PC in the same local network to boot the Instant-Grid-environment via network-interface-card. Together with the frontend these PC automatically form a working test-grid.<br />
*Content/features: Globus-Toolkit, Gridsphere with grid-portlets, Globus-MPI, Ganglia. The setup is fully automated.<br />
