Hello,
I thought id install the new linux 8.10 Intrepid Ibex with my windows vista ultimate operating system so i can dual boot either windows or linux ...Comes in handy with simap scambles (Double dip - so to speak cache load to the hilt with windows then back in with linux)
The installation appeared to go fine when the machine restarted you are presented with :
Windows Vista Ultimate
Linux Ubuntu
I clicked on linux and after a few moments after watching the orange scroller progress bar bobbing allong the screen it went tits up.I was presented with a screen of gobbledygook and i'm assuming a promt.
I restarted the machine and booted back into windows vista explored my c drive drive and copied the boinc folder to dvdr.
Now i have wipped the hard drive clean reinstalled Windows Vista Ultimate and all updates anti virus & fire wall etc
I have thrown the intrepid ibex dvd out of the F***ing window and now i can't get back boinc running with all my projects/credits intact etc etc.
And to top it all off unless the remaining 60 simap wu's are on the disk somewhhere iv'e lost them too !
Any help and advice will be much appreciated.....
I can see the local recycling station the proud owner of my mini farm unless i can turn
into
Kind Regards
