Quite simply, you cannot continue a Win model on Linux. (compilation could put instructions in different order leading to some instructions missed or done twice) |

With an Intel processor you will probably see a 10 - 15% speed gain under Linux. You may want to set up a dual boot system at first, and if so you will want to install a Linux version of BOINC separately. You can then run BOINC whichever OS you are using at the time. But as Chris says, each will run its own CPDN model. |
