I'm running BOINC 4.09 in Linux (FC1 and FC2) on my computers I use for research at my university. I'm about to graduate and so I will have to detatch these machines from CP.N. I've been running BOINC with the "-exit_when_idle" option so when a work unit is finished, the results are reported and the client should exit, however it is actually retreiving a new work unit and continuing to crunch away. How can I get BOINC to complete a work unit, upload the results, and then stop?

By changing the number of GB to leave free on the disk to more than the disk size itself. If there are 80 GB free on the disk, change it to 100 GB. Of course this would affect any home computers, and any other BOINC projects you might be running on your home computers (if any), as well.

Thanks geophi, I'll give that a shot.
