You should install a Linux distribution on the servers. Debian has proved itself appropriate and the documentation here is based on Debian. So unless you are a very adventureous spirit with too much time on your hands, you should stick to Debian.
Install Debian in a minimal version
Notice that polyphemus has two NICs while majorana has three. The 100 Mbit NICs connects the servers to the world, so configure those if you do a network install.
Post installation
Enable the Gigabit Ethernet NICs in:
/etc/network/interfaces
Copy the files that you backup to majorana:
/root/bin
and add that path to .bashrc so that scripts in that directory can be executed without typing in your life story.
After Debian has been installed move on to install the cluster server daemons.
