If you check out www.lanl.gov, there is an early announcement of an new K8+infiniband cluster. It is 256 nodes, and will run LinuxBIOS.
There is also mention of a larger K8 cluster, which we believe will also run LinuxBIOS. This larger cluster is not InfiniBand, as I read the announcement.
Linux NetworX are building the systems, and of course Eric Biederman is managing the LinuxBIOS part.
Thanks to Linux NetworX, AMD, Arima, Tyan, Eric, Stefan, and Yh Lu for all the work they have working on and supporting LinuxBIOS on the K8. I hope I didn't leave too many people/companies out.
The really positive news here is that our hope, when we started this project 4 years ago, was that we could someday buy machines and they would be delivered with LinuxBIOS installed; this has now happened on over 4 machines here at LANL, one machine at LLNL, and one machine at ANL, to name a few. There are already at least 3 machines on the TOP 500 list running LinuxBIOS.
