The Anti-Fold Server

[marty9876]

Moron test coming up!

Pulling down a trial VMware right now, I misplaced my corp network....

 

[unhappy_mage]

The plan is eventually to have a "Marty Mode" where it does everything to the defaults

Thank yew! I'll be here all week!

 

[KodiakStar]

Haha. I will have to burn a copy of this from my work computer

(for some reason my cddrive HATES iso's
(damn thing)...

I have a few boxes that could use some help

I am out of room on my switch bleh. and out of cat5 (again)

Well you aint there yet.... no worky

 

[KodiakStar]

You already broke it marty?

did you remeber to hook up a harddrive?

 

[marty9876]

It's a virtual machine, mage uses it also so he knows what I'm doing.

 

[marty9876]

Umm, opps.... Note to self: Linix bites.

Ok, I think I had a virtual SCSI drive on the first one. It's now booted and I I have no clue what to do....

 

[unhappy_mage]

I'm having trouble breathing due to laughter and drinking water while reading your post.

You need to set the VM up with an IDE disk. It's an advanced setting. The installer looks for "/dev/hda", or "ide disk one" rather than "/dev/sda", or "scsi disk one". Don't ask why it's "hda" instead of "ida". Idaknow.

/me used to use VMWare before my license ran out.

 

[marty9876]

cough cough up 2 ^^

 

[unhappy_mage]

Okay, forgot a step. it says "fold-box login:" at the bottom, right? Enter "root", and then "Fold@on" when it asks for a password.

I see you figured it out

Just gonan post asking for this...details huh?

See sig! VM is killing my net connection

 

[KodiakStar]

lol.

you guys are too much.

be fun to watch you two sitting at a bar trying to hit on women

 

[marty9876]

I misread that. I thought it said "be fun watching you to at a bar fight with women"

Ok, it loaded, net connection not working. Virtual machine issue I think, will work on.

 

[unhappy_mage]

See sig! VM is killing my net connection

aooh? What does that mean? Try "ifconfig eth0" to see if it has a "UP" in the status line. Are you getting a network address?

Also, are you using "bridged" networking?

 

[marty9876]

Ok, can ping out switched something err another

crapps out big time on the /etc/getfold

Get this, the zinger of all. MS Paint craps out on my system now..... let me try it again

I captured a movie in VM too, I don't have your email on this box mage.

 

[unhappy_mage]

^ Jeez, talk about insult to injury.

be fun to watch you two sitting at a bar trying to hit on women

I'd be like "Hi, you're fat. I mean pretty" and then she'd slap me and marty'd be like "hah, WHOOPS".

 

[marty9876]

hey fix it!

 

[KodiakStar]

more like marty="hey you are fat, want to dance"

i mean.. um

kidding... or something

 

[unhappy_mage]

Figured it out. Bug in my typing. Let's see if I can tell you precisely enough what to type...
enter "vi /etc/getfold"
scroll down to the 5th line (it shows what line you're on at the bottom)
arrow over until you're after "sed", then press "i".
insert " -n", so it starts like this: "sed -n '"
arrow key over to almost the end of the line, and insert a "p" between the / and the '`.
The whole line should now look like this:
sed -n '/Linux/s/.*href="\([^"]*\)".*/\1/p'`
If you screw up anywhere, press <esc>:q!<enter> and you can start over.

If you get it right, press <esc>:wq<enter> and try "/etc/getfold". Works for me.

K*, play nice

what does :wq<enter mean? nevermind

 

[unhappy_mage]

type a colon, then w, then q, then enter. sorry.

http://userpages.umbc.edu/~willm1/test.iso

or just download and reinstall. It's fixed in the installer now.

 

[marty9876]

This can't be right, my screw ups?

 

[unhappy_mage]

Looks right to me!

 

[marty9876]

there is 4 fricking deallies... just d/l newest booting now

But look at the CPU column; this is how much CPU power each process is taking. The one process is taking 99%.

It's offical, Mage is a god!

Folding on 64 meg of RAM, first screenie is WU running, 2nd is 192 ram, 3rd is 64 system RAM. Umm 32 no work.... But that's still [H]ard as [H]ell

Yea, it's a small timeless WU, just what it grabbed.

So timeless/normals @ 64 meg RAM. Big WU's @ 192 ? 128 and swap action?

How much does Samba take? I must admit I had to type 3 lines of stuff in...too much!

Ohh, and BT Fing W, what user name is this folding under???



Good Job!

 

[unhappy_mage]

edit: what are the odds? I wait about 15 minutes, but the second I post he slips one in before me...

Samba is a 4.3 mb compressed file, or 13 uncompressed. Should make the installer about 10mb (as opposed to 6 ) and make it take up 55mb installed instead of 40.

Oh, and most of that is filesystem overhead; the actual files only take up about 6.5 mb. Samba is gonna triple that

and answer: it's "[H]ard|User", for team 33 of course.

---

anyways, going to bed. It's almost 1 here, and I've got work tomorrow work on it more tomorrow.

So I'm guessing that means it's folding under your name then huh...

edit: me can't read screen. that hard user deally

 

[Kvothe]

Seeing this makes me not want to go to work... I wanna play with the fun Linuxy foldy thingy! At least I've got something to do tonight now!

How much memory overhead does it take?

I know how you feel. Luckily, I was already at work when I saw all the updates on this so I wasn't tempted to call in sick even if I could afford to. My only problem is that I just got my dually PII back up and folding last night after a WinXP install. Although the old IDE hard drive is about shot in it I think, I could probably install it on that for a temporary measure.

I won't have the time to do anything tonight, unfortunately. Too much cleaning and laundry to do yet. It wouldn't be so bad if I had a net connection at home and an extra monitor at my friend's house.

Hey mage, is this thing setup to run dual processor systems also? I forgot to ask about that before you actually started work on it.

 

[KodiakStar]

err yea. I need to know as well

and i think i forgot to bring a friggin cd with me.

 

[unhappy_mage]

How much memory overhead does it take?

With FAH stopped, I see 8540 kb of memory used. You can type "free" at a console to check how much it's currently using.

And it should support duallies; i'd appreciate testers, though.

Gotta run, I'll check back this afternoon/evening. Hooray for overtime...

If I get time, I can test dullie @ shop.

I meant, how much more RAM will Samba take?

 

[gigabyte1024]

I'll be testing in MSVPC as time permits through out the day.

 

[seapirate]

Downloaded latest version this morning, I will try it out when I get home tonight.

 

[marty9876]

Dullie reporting in! I challenge anyone to out crap this.

2x P3 550
96 meg RAM (64 causes core errors, crapped out right away)
738 MB hard drive (yea, MB)

Light right up.

Mage- Please post the current config for what the WU's assigments are (timeless/normal/large)

To do list:
Samba share deally
Ability to edit config (folding name) on installation process

Anything I miss?

Sweet deal, that even I can use!

well as it stands. my dual is 400 mhz... (p3 none the less..)
although i do have the 2x 550'z i will throw in there tonight

I will need some psu's from you later marty. but will have to wait after payday until i get enough money
