I get the same message every time I try to update: Not enough dish space, only 100MB allocated to BOINC review preferences for min disk free space allowed. I do have SETI running without a problem and my BOINC manager shows a 50/50 resource split between the two. My HD has 25GB of free space and I am unsure how to change the BOINC space allocation. Any ideas? Drew ID: 1599 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Use no more than 30 GB disk space Leave at least 0.1 GB disk space free Use no more than 85% of total disk space Write to disk at most every 360 seconds Use no more than 75% of total virtual memory This is to much restrictive ! If I MUST do that in order to make the project working on my PC (i have the same problem), i'll withdraw the project !!! ID: 1782 · Rating: -1 · rate: / Reply Quote

If you are getting this message then all you have to do is set your general preferences by doing the following: 1. click the "Participants" link or the "Your account" link on the project homepage and login if you haven't already. 2. then click the "View or edit general preferences" link. 3. modify your preferences settings. These general settings work across all boinc projects you participate in. For Rosetta@home, I recommend: Switch between applications every 2 hours (at least) Leave applications in memory while preempted? YES Allow for at least 200MB of disk space for this project (less than 30MB is used for current experiments) ID: 3151 · Rating: 2 · rate: / Reply Quote

"Use no more than 30 GB disk space" doesn't mean it will use 30gb of hard drive space, in fact Rosetta only uses 15meg on mine and I've ran it for almost a month now.

I see "Disk and Memory Usage: Use no more than XXX GBytes" This must mean MBytes? ID: 8003 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
