    Include SETI@Home

    This was brought up here:
    http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2397

    It does seem like a pretty good idea as you could run SETI@Home on a diskless machine without having to install it each time you started the box up.

    seti@home is a distributed computing program, right? Why do you want it?

    This custom version of knoppix runs folding@home at startup in the background. There are scripts to view/start/stop/and configure it that make things very easy. It has a ton of apps just like knoppix. And you don't need to have a hard drive. It has samba, ssh, and vnc for remote connectivity, to share files, to use electron micorscope to monitor folding.

    It also has:
    seti@home
    prime-net
    memtest
    cpuburn
    lucifer


    So its great to burn-in a new box without having to install an OS. It can also be installed via the knxhddinstall script and so it is a quick and easy way to install debian.


    In a future release I'm adding scripts to d/l and install F-prot into ramdisk or a persisntent /home. That will let you scan windows partitions for virii wihout having to boot into windows. I've almost got the feature to automatically to save WU's to a hdd or pen drive at intervals in case of power failure, but F@H locks the work folder...

    Overclockix iso 686mb, no md5sum yet, sorry


    With this cd you could make layers of a folding/seti/prime cluster for around $150.
