I'd like to advise but I'm interested to know exactly what you're looking for
(or trying to do) with your cluster software. 

linuxha.net is software which allows you to have HA failover between two
nodes, using floating IPs and drbd as the shared storage device. OpenMosix is
specifically for SSI.

With a combination of these two? I'm trying to understand your application
and/or requirement.

Michael.
