Windows and Linux sequentally?

May I use FAH clients on Windows and Linux sequentally with the same data files? I.e. I load Windows, run FAH on WU1, shutdown Windows, load Linux, run FAH on the same WU1 to continue work?

Only if the FAH client executable will remain the same. You must get the Windows to run the FAH Linux client or get the Linux to run the FAH Windows client.

Just run the windows folding client via wine on linux.
Technically you should then be able to fold the same workunit, regardless of what OS you are running. Of course i havent tried it, but i did run windows on wine for over a year, when the linux client was buggy with glibc errors a couple of years back. It worked a treat, so i cant see a problem, well apart from the need for a vfat partition to run it from.

Yes, it works with
Code: Select all
$command = "gnome-terminal --title=\"FAH ".$cpu_no."\" --working-directory=".$cpu_fah_dir." --command=\"wine ".$cpu_fah_dir."/FAH504-Console.exe -local\" &";
system('sleep', '5');
system($command);
