Hi,
There are various distributions that are built with grid in mind.
ParallelKnoppix, which is a Live CD, for example, is supposed to include
(some of) the necessary tools. When I worked on processing of large data in
multiple clusters I just used Fedora Core 3. It does, however, lack some
out-of-the-box utilities.
