BOINCpe 0.4.1 Beta - Live CD for BOINC

With BOINCpe 0.4.1 Beta you can run a dedicated BOINC machine in-RAM (using a RAM disk) starting from only 256 MB of total RAM. This is useful to operate your BOINC farm more energy-efficient (without HDDs) or to temporarily activate machines without hard disk drives (HDD) for BOINC.

You only need the following components for a fully capable BOINC crunching machine:

  • Mainboard + CPU
  • at least 256 MB of RAM
  • Network interface card (optional: PXE compatible)
  • CD-ROM drive (only if booting from CD)
