3) Questions and Answers : Macintosh : Where's The Support?? (Message 3189) Posted 1 Jul 2004 by aetrox Post: OK I must agree the lack of instruction is pretty bad, I left DOS in '86 to get away from comand line gobbel-de-gook. So after about an hour and a half of poking around in root level stuff that not only do I not understand, but do not want to understand( I am an end user, not a programmer) this is what I did and as far as I can tell it seems to work and nothing has broken, yet. 1 Down load and unstuff the program. The program I got is BOINC client 3.1.18 Powerpc. 2 Create a folder some place safe. Mine is in the applications folder of my user file. hard drive / users / your name / applications / boinc 3 Open the terminal interface Hard drive / applications / utilities / terminal 4 Drag the application from the previously created folder and drop it on to the terminal. Hit the return button. The terminal "should" then launch the application as well as build all the path gunk and do the 'cd' & 'chmod' and all that other command line stuff for you. 5 At this point the terminal will ask for specific data. The first thing is the SETI url and the second thing is your account key, this data can be found on the seti web site. Seti homepage / participate in seti at home / downlaod VERY IMPORTANT! If you have NOT launched the application for the first time the download window will display the seti URL and your personal account key. After you have launched the application this data is not available and I have no idea how to retrive it. So make a copt of this data and secure it for future refrence!!!! 6 Copy and paste the URL in to the terminal. Hit return. 7 Copy and paste your account key in to the terminal. Hit return. 8 Close the terminal. 9 Pray to god that you never have to return to the ancient lost civilization of DOS again! Hope this helps someone, because after 18 years of bliss this was a harsh blast from the past.
