I change between Windows and Linux quite often, and have just installed the Linux version of BOINC. I have a few questions...

Am I doing the same tasks twice in the two clients, or am I downloading different tasks each time? Can I make the two clients run the same task and continue where the other stopped?

TIA,
S

You will have two entirely seperate sets of work units and will be unable (as far as I know) be unable to crunch the units that are on one of the OS'es with the BOINC program on the other OS. Good thought though!..p
