Mosix is a modification of the Linux kernel to allow processes to be transferred among other Mosix-enabled machines. If you wanted to use mosix on those servers, they would have to be booted into a Linux environment, which is easy to do with a ClusterKnoppix CD. OpenMosix is a popular incarnation of Mosix, and the OpenMosix websites gives detailed info.
However, I do not see a huge advantage to running F@H with OpenMosix. If you just have several machines with the same username, all the work units will count towards you. Each machine would do its own work unit, but in the end it's the same amount of processing power. You can have one work unit finished in X hours or 10 work units finished in 10X hours. It works out to be the same.
