I'm fairly familiar with BOINC, having installed it about a million times over the years, but I find the BUDA/WSL2/Podman enable/install process complicated. I know this is an area of active development and so presumably will get easier, but for me the main challenge isn't following steps, it's knowing which steps have worked and which still need to be completed, without looking through the logs which can't be expected of most people. So my request, aside from automating what you can and preusmably are working on, is to have a checklist in BOINC manager, that shows what is working and what isn't for BUDA - e.g.: Virtualisation working? Docker/Podman detected? WSL enabled? Etc. And maybe some CPU, RAM and GPU info Is that doable, and if so, is it something others would find helpful? Cheers, Danny |

To be honest, at the moment, I wouldn't bother with PODMAN or docker. So few projects use it that you are probably better off sticking with Virtual Box for those that use that. I stopped using it because it has conflicts with VB and I wanted to run Windows tasks using VB for my main two projects. |
