Pastry is a generic, scalable and efficient substrate for peer-to-peer
applications. Pastry nodes form a decentralized, self-organizing and
fault-tolerant overlay network within the Internet. Pastry provides
efficient request routing, deterministic object location, and load balancing
in an application-independent manner. Furthermore, Pastry provides
mechanisms that support and facilitate application-specific object
replication, caching, and fault recovery.

I've seen this implemented for a shell server, although they chose
to have their root on a CD-WR in a CD-R drive. Which meant that even
when compromised it was only possible to examine other users data.
AFAIR(emember) they just swapped CD's when a root exploit was found.
