The download for the sulpher model failed with me. I attach the stderrdae text file.

I am running Tiger (osx 10.4.2) on a G5 dual 2.0 ghz with 2.5 gig ddr sdram with adsl BT connection and BOINC Manager 4.43

There is a short thread about this problem <a href=\"http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewtopic.php?t=3228&highlight=\"> here.</a>

OK ---- After a third try I have it downloaded and it seems to be running ok.

What I did was to adjust my preference settings. I set to hold in memory, increased available memory, reset connection to server to 2 days from .1 days. I also reinstalled the libcpdn package.

The log shows that it all downloaded and started ok, (it was crashing.)

It\'s a long wu - 2956 hours - and uses a large amount of disk space - 333.25mb as against sah 3.83mb.

Lets see how it goes.
