yes i have taken 2.6.22 kernel from kernel.org. i like to to distributed computing for massive storage.but as per grid OS document ,TUX server is to be required in build kernel.this TUX server has been removed from 2.6 kernel.so hopw i can make my kernel enable for TUX server as well from that i should get a system call sys_tux to communicate user application with TUX kernel server??
is bydefault 2.6.22 kernel has TUX server and sys_tux system call in build? i f not then how i can make it???
Thanks and Regards,
Amol

Also, if you are seriously looking at doing some heavy-duty kernel development
(which you project seems to aim at), I'd go for git and clone the repo.
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
Otherwise, the latest stable 2.6.27.5 can be retrieved from
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.27.5.tar.bz2
Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'the functionality of the grid'? Are you
looking at distributed computing? the ability to migrate tasks from one system
to another? massive storage?
Anyway, good luck :)
