Raspberry Pi: "When I grow up, I wanna be a motherboard!"

Instructions too vague, ended up eating the wrong Pi

This is digital artistry of the highest order - the beauty is you make it look so simple. Well done!

First of all your videos are amazing. So simple and to the point. Cluster computing is something I have been curious about for a while. Also a episode on x86 clustering would be awesome. Can't wait to see Part 2

Happy 400th Video Tinkernut!

Thank you for not saying super long words and technical complex stuff, i like it, simple and straight to the point

a tutorial i've been waiting for for a while, even though it's way too much time, effort and money to do practically. amazing and well done anyway

This guide was really awesome, I've never heard of this channel, but you've just earned yourself a new subscriber!

So the beginning of the message is "to". Thank you so much! I have been waiting forever to figure out how to do this!

Best intro I've seen on youtube for a while. Explanation skills competing with ToT. Damn

Dude this is your best video u have ever made, please make more of these types of videos please

My second Pi just came in and I cannot wait to try this tutorial! Fingers crossed. I am using my two VERY 100 FT Long Ethernet cables plugged into the same router for this experiment, my 24 port ethernet switch comes in, in about 4 days so I am definitely excited! I want to make this project for my school - just to represent the fact that I love computer related stuff for no reason. Of course I will find a way to utilize this cluster once I have made it on a bigger scale :) Thanks tinker!

fuck it's 2:30am and im watching some cluster shit sen help

Great video can't wait for part 2

Oh my god, you sir have just made my day! If I had a credit card and a source of income, I would patreon you so hard right now. Keep up the fantastic work! Can't wait for the next one!

You have amazing editing skills

I am good with computers but the ones that figure all this out... badass! Thank you to you all for sure.

When can we expect part two? im caught up and keen to keep going!, do you have a list of the commands i need to enter to finish off the worker pi? or other node/nodes

This is exactly what I wanted to do! Thank you!

can't wait for part 2

this video was great, really helpful

Hi, actually I really like the style of your videos and over the past weeks I've enjoyed many of your projects and most of the jokes too. :P Especially this video helped me a lot regarding to a problem I've had in my very own little project starting a view weeks ago. So please keep on doing that helpful and interesting content. Best regards, JMS

since this is supposed to be a tutorial, it would be nice if the commands you typed were on the screen for more than a split second. That being said, I used this tutorial and got it to work, so thanks for posting!

Forget it, I fixed it..... Thanks fir the great tutorial!

Best. Tutorial. Ever. (imho)

Wanted to know if we can use the same steps with some changes to make a asus tinker board cluster computer

yes i been looking for a good tutorial on pi-clusters

Was looking forward to this. Yay.

Hey Tinker Nut I wanted to know that can I use this configuration for Raspberry Pi Zero as I will be using USB to Ethernet adapter

can you make a tutorial on how to do it to 2 old windows tower computer ? :)

do you have to have 2 of the same pis or can i use like a pi 0 and a pi 3 together?

This is exactly what I wanted to do！Thanks!

I can't imagine this would be cost effective when stacked against a normal computer for processing power and efficiency. Sure you have more cores, but are those cores going to outpace something with one forth the number but several times the power?

Video is awesome. I already knew the circa. procedure^^ Thinking about a virtual cpu emulated over multiple pi's right now. I really like your homour :D

first of all....great video...really insightful...thank you...want to run Weather Research and Forecasting model based on Fortran , C and Unix she'll commands, is it possible to control raspberry pi's as slave nodes via an Ubuntu desktop??

is it possible to do the same with P4 or cor2duo mother boards.. to cluster multiple into one .. ?

Tinkernut, I worship you

Hello endearing man!! I want to try and up the scale of this to run Marvelous Designer is that doable?

I like the animations. very good!

Great video, Thx bro!

I would like to know if after I've done this cluster, can I install Openelec/OSMC to run faster?

Am I the only one annoyed by the fact that he shows an Apple tablet running Windows and having SD card support?

I don't know if you are still answering questions on this video, but I might as well try. Can you run programs with GUIs using the cluster, or only python/C++ files?

"Now this is a good place to take a break before your head explodes with sudo commands and nano edits." ME: *brain explodes* "dadooydoodeedaaaa"

dude i have doubt, one of my friend is making this super computer using Raspberry Pi 3 Cluster and he is installing Raspbian Jessie image as os which is of debian family, but i have this question should we buy a new monitor to use this os by the raspberry super computer orelse can we use it as virtual machine

Funny and informative. Thx!

Hi! I am an indie filmmaker and tech enthusiast and I've been reading a lot about raspberry PI clusters. I was wondering if you'd be able to help me. I'd like to use it for large file processing, such as rendering 3D vídeo on blendr and generating dcp files. Is that possible? Also, I have a couple of secondary questions that I hope you'd be able to help me with: 1- Can I use it also as a "regular PC"? I'd like to run Ubuntu on it 2- How would I plug it to a monitor? If there's multiple boards, can I control all of them from a single screen? And combine their forces for a single activity? 3- Do I have to use identical boards or can I get different PI models? Thank you!

you crack me up ...awesome video.. what software did you use to make this video?

I have my pi setup to where it is a ftp and it can download torrents of i wish to do so. (Mainly seeding raspbian image atm) If i download cpu (clocked 1050mhz) runs 100% so i was wondering if hooking a second Rpi would make it faster. Main reason why asking: communication between pi's goes over ethernet so that might form a bottleneck i guess?

alright, I am interested in making a handheld console with 2 raspberry pi's (rpi3 +rpi2) i keep looking for a tutorial on how to make a 2 node system with no luck, also i keep hearing online: no, clustering your pi's will not make the system run faster. then what does it do? if someone could help me, that would be great,

Doese it also work with usual motherboards?

Can you make this with err, network boot? all clients share the same imortent files.. that needs to be loaded. (loads into ram)

Would this work with a Pi 1 and Pi 3 working together? Great video!

Hey do you know how to fix 'command not found' during sudo /home/Pi/mpich2/mpich-3.1/configure -prefix=/home/rpimpi/mpi-install

Is it possible to connect other non-rpi computers with this method? I'm trying to build a cluster composed of computers I have lying around an slurm is not working for me! Thanks for your videos

do you have a zip file or image file of the cluster os? if so I would like to have it so I don't have to do all of that encoding and work.

Dude you're awesome thanks to you now i want to learn computer coding

would it be possible to use pi 1s and 2s with zeros in a cluster computer?

why would you prefer the python mpi over the "native" one?

Hi, How can I get autologin to work on Debian Jessie? I'm hoping I can do this post completing all the coding steps described in your video, as I have just realised this is not autologing in.......

any changes with the new Raspbien Stretch image?

Whats the advantage of compiling the tarball of mpich vs pulling it from raspbian repos?

Thanks! This help a lot! :)

All sounds great, but how did you run windows on ipad?

what if you create a Raspberry pi 3 cluster using 8 pis then the computing performance would increase. then lets say you virtually emulate an OS in it , then can you run x86 games in the virtual machine at max settings ?

Hey Tinkernut! Do you think it's possible to get this working with Raspbmc, to get an epic media center?

If I'm not hard of hearing you said that Raspbian can fit onto a 4GB SD card. However when I tried to write to the SD card I have i was prompted with the error saying that there was not enough space and I found that Raspian was just over 4 GB. Anyone have a fix for this, and i notice that when compressed its 1.4 GB but i cant write when its compressed.

Hey theoretical question, can you roughly follow these steps without a raspberry pi but instead use some old laptops and old desktop pcs?

do two pi zeros in cluster work as a dualcore 1ghz and 1GB of Ram ?

Can this also be used for normal pc's as well?

There is no package manager on raspbian? It could simplify the installation of mpi, etc.

Can the pi devices be made in a motion tracking device to creat movement for animation

How did you film your screen on the raspberry pi?

400th video, congrats gigafide!

can i do these for retropie and play games more smoothly ?

what power supply did you use?

Very well made video. congrats!

Question. I keep reading there is no other use for a cluster other than to calculate large equations. Can the cluster be used as a very fast desktop???

Will this work with the multicored pis?

Hi, thank you for the tutorial, i have 1 question, Win32 Disk Imager asks what hash to include... options are: MD5, SHA1 and SHA256, wich should I choose?

Can you use another Linux distro (like Kali Linux) for a Raspberry Pi cluster?

This seems a bit more complicated than it seemed it would be.

Around @2:00 mark, or you could simply use Berryboot to get the operating system installed on the Raspberry Pi. Pretty easy and you don't have to subject yourself to Microsoft Windows during the process. I grabbed the Berryboot loader from the internet using my favorite GNU/Linux distro and then put that on the SD card. After that was done, I ran the Berryboot loader on the Raspberry Pi it's self and then did the remainder of the operating system installation process on the Raspberry Pi. It's completely a Microsoft-less experience for me and very simple and was completely graphical every step of the way..

hello, is it possible to do cluster computer with old laptop?

Can i do this to make a cheap minecraft server or does ram not stack

Well done.

I was going to eat some pie while attempting to build a super computer using this tutorial, but unfortunately my head had already exploded. :(

Can something like this be done with motherboards from use computers?

Where do u buy the pies they are not in the description

Please. Is this tutorial also for Rasp3?

Could you use a crossover ethernet cable?

Can you overclock it full to 1000 MHz???? Can you run the computer over USB instead of sd cards like the regular pi can?? Thank you

Can you use this for a stronger raspberry pi to play games

Hi. Great God-given talent. Is this also called parallel computing? Is this method the one used for data centers and render farms as well as supercomputers? Any idea or theory how to combine the power of Dreamcasts (lens are no good but the boards are ok) into one powerful Dreamcast scalable cluster that can be made for developing DC games that rival the modern console (just for technical fun) coz' the DC are still being developed for. Also any idea or theory how to make a cluster off Macs, say you have an old iMac and bought a new iMac, you'll double it's graphics power and CPU when it's doing parallel computing as well as have two monitors (scalable so everytime your iMac or Mac or PC becomes obsolete it can be added to the cluster so you can combine its power). Thank you. God bless. Rev. 21:4

Could I still run another operating system on the cluster computer (like kali linux for example) and how would I do that?

I'm building a cluster computer with normal size motherboards, what Linux distro should I use? and would it be the same process?

what i wanna know is how did you view the raspberry pi on the tablet

this is exactly what I need after buying 2 RasPi. thanks gigafide

Hi. I have a raspberry pi 3 model 3 . How can I come this screen for write a code. And will it run ?

i have a problem after sending all of the ssh keys to pi01 and all the other have pi01's key(all in authorised keys file) i run the program and i get an error it authenticates pi01 but then prinmt ssh_askpass exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass) no such file or directory permission denied please try again. None of the ssh keys were created with a password and i have tried this with new keys same result
