Re: How to setup VBox and Run Linux on your Windows System
Al and I both use Linux Mint. There are 4 different flavors of Mint; Xfce, Mate, Cinnamon, and KDE. Xfce's user interface (GUI) is the least robust (not needed for BOINC) and goes all the way to KDE which is the most Windows like. There are subtle differences between the interfaces and what can be done by the GUI. Al and I plan on doing a step-by-step tutorial (at some point) on how to get BOINC up and running. We use the Xfce version so if you want to tag along then that might be a good choice. Of course with Vbox you can install different versions and play around till you settle on one of them.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW MUCH TO CRUNCH BOINC IN LINUX!!!
We will give instructions on how to:
Install in VBox
Install onto USB stick
Dual boot your PC (run native Linux at will)
