You don't need to add the project dirs. Just add the account*.xml files for any projects you wish to autojoin and on the first startup, BOINC will create the necessary project directories and contact the servers for work. Adding the account files to the existing tarball is all you'll need to do. Unpack, run and -- boom -- away you go. |

You will need the app_info.xml file in your project folder along with your preferred Seti app. Trane's advice would result in you crunching with the standard Berkeley app which, as I am sure you are aware, is a lot slower than the optimised apps available.
