Dual Boot Linux & XP

They will be recognized as two separate machines. You will probably need to set up two different BOINC directories for the client, but I think they might share the projects/einstein.phys.uwm/edu subdirectory where the larger data files are kept.

I think it would be best to set up the Windows client first and attach it to the projects. Then boot Linux, make a BOINC directory somewhere, put the Linux client in there, copy the account*.xm file(s) from the Windows BOINC dir in there and mke a symlink to the Windows projects directory, also called "projects", in the Linux BOINC directory. Then run the Linux client.
