Hello,
what a coincidence, I'm trying to build a Beowulf installer using a
Chimaera kernel :D (I have to install Beowulf on a HP laptop that
doesn't allow disabling "Rapid Storage Technology"...)
I've not managed to do it yet, but I think the starting point is

I'll report back if I find out more details
