Message 14791 - Posted: 8 Aug 2004, 18:19:33 UTC

The one time I've managed to connect to the seti host and download the 3.20 version, it unstuffed to a .dmg file and had the image of the disk inside in the icon, but it wouldn't mount. I suspect but haven't confirmed it was a incomplete download. It was about a 1.1 MB file.

Any alternate d/l sites?

TIA

I'm sorry. I was mistaken. It only downloads as "boinc_3.20_powerpc-apple-darwin.gz". Opening it only creates another Stuffit Expander document with a blank icon, although it is 5.5 MB. I am using latest version 8.0.2 of Stuffit Deluxe Expander. There's another poster with same problem, but responses there haven't helped :(.

The size of my applicaton is 1,088,344 bytes.

If you download the file with Safari, it does the .GZ unstuffing for you and leaves a file that can be executed from the TERMINAL after the CHMOD command to get the permissions set correctly.
