Thanks. I'll reply in the other thread.

The current administration is making us poorer, unhealthier, and less safe. November may be our last chance to stop it.

I think the Dotsch distro is better for my purposes since it's easy to install on a bootable USB drive and it runs BOINC natively.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24169312 Thu, 29 Apr 2010 13:03:36 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24169160
One trick that you can use to always know where BOINC is storing the juicy goods of the work units it to bring up the boinc manager just after starting the application and take a look at the "Messages" tab. Look for the "Data directory:" log entry. This will tell you, upon every startup where BOINC is looking for work. This is great when troubleshooting.

That said, I noticed you were looking to change distro's. Please keep in mind that the "curve" of running BOINC doesn't necessarily change. The issues do sometimes :) but the core of Linux is fairly standard.

Cheers,

If anyone is interested, I also installed Dotsch/UX on a pendrive and it worked like a charm. I'll prob go with the Dotsch distro in the future over ubuntu 9.x]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24168145 Thu, 29 Apr 2010 09:25:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24165207
1. cd /var/lib/boinc-client
2. sudo mv ca-bundle.crt{,.bak}
3. sudo wget »boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/export/1···ndle.crt -O ca-bundle.crt.upstream
4. sudo cp -a ca-bundle.crt{.upstream,}

In step 3 the link is "http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/export/16195/trunk/boinc/curl/ca-bundle.crt" without the quotes and without the >> in front of it. Posting this message auto-creates a link so its not posting properly. If confused about step 3 check this site:

Hopefully Ubuntu 10 will resolve this in a couple of days.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24165207 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 17:12:05 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24165010 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24165010 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 16:29:53 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24164385 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24164385 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 14:52:19 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24163612
If it's not a date problem then I'm stumped as I've never seen that problem.

SoHiWeather]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24163612 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 12:52:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24163291 I put together anther cruncher from spare parts I had about. I don't have an extra HDD tho, so I set about running the machine off a flash drive. It's running Ubuntu 9.10 and I have no issues getting BOINC installed and running except...i get "Scheduler request failed: peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates"

»boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/Err···20failed suggest this:

1. Determine your BOINC data directory. Check the beginning of your message log. There will be a line near the beginning like this:

08/06/2007 13:18:00||Data directory: C:\Program Files\BOINC

2. Download the missing file. - make sure you name the file ca-bundle.crt.
3. Place the file in your BOINC data directory.
4. Restart BOINC. The way you do this will depend on your installation.

That would be great, except I'm new to linux and have no idea how to even get past step one "Determine your BOINC data directory."

Can you guys help? Any other ideas? I'm currently running another cruncher with Ubuntu 10.04 w/o any issues, but it's installed on a HDD.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Need-Help-with-BOINC-and-Ubuntu-24163291 Wed, 28 Apr 2010 11:52:25 EDT
