OK i had a few old bits of computers lying around and have made them into a rack. It has most stuff except a HDD or NIC.
I have been using seti for a little while so know a bit about it but i have neva before used Linux. Is there a way to make seti on a disk/cd for it and can it get it to store completed work units on a disk or can i get linux to detect my USR modem and use that to dump units? Please help as i do not have any idea how to work linux which i assume is my only solution.

there is a site listed in the related websites on seti's page under unix that has a harddiskless floppy linux, but it requires a lot of disk swapping/typing to start it up. i'm almost thinking some sort of bootable CD that has everything on it and makes ram drives would be cheap and easy, unless you can get good sized used hard drives cheaply
 
A CD with it all on wood b great excpet my mobo don;t alow me to boot off a CD i don' think so maybe a floppy first that could get you into the CD all help greatfully recieved!!
 
thats an old mobo then... the floppy thing might do the trick. i think theres a link in the other seti rack thread by rootaxs
