- JosephRedfern 7y agoMaybe the generic installation process, but it was totally painless to install under Ubuntu.
- mnd999 7y agoArch has a package in aur as well which makes it pretty straightforward.
- vinniejames 7y agobtw, I use arch
- kibibyte 7y agoVMware just announced a Folding@Home virtual appliance. https://octo.vmware.com/vmware-appliance-fah/ https://octo.vmware.com/vmware-appliance-fah/ I'm fully aware that this is not a container, doesn't run on free/open-source software, etc. etc. but it's an available alternative now.
- JensRex 7y agoHow so? I just looked, and they have both .deb and .rpm packages available. I once spent two-and-a-half hours having two wisdom teeth removed, and afterwards I got an infection in the empty sockets. I'd rather do all of that again, than having to use Docker for anything.

- en4bz 7y agoI just sent up an LXC container in 10 minutes to do GPU folding. Docker is much easier than LCX to configure, especially for GPU stuff. Really isn't that difficult. It's a single deb package.
