Clustering is "bigger than a bread box".
Can you be specific about your clustering intentions.

There are fine grained and  coarse grained computational clusters.
Shared memory, reflected memory or TCP/IP message passing.

There are fail over clusters for httpd where the fail  over is 
transparent to the box/apache i.e. provided by the router and DNS.

There is load sharing clustering.
There is data base clustering (each data base product has a different answer).
There is file system clustering.
Mirror cluster.... (rsync).
BitTorrent clustering...
Render Farm clusters.

Redundant, performance.

Since lots of us are running setiathome on RedHat 7.x, 8.x, 9.x,
FC1, FC1.9x I would assert that ALL current versions of RH
cluster just fine.
