(moderation:
What ist this? I'm running BOINC (SETI, LHC and Einstein) on a 160 MByte ramdisk since more than a year. Suddenly it complains about not enough disk space? What have you changed on your end, cause i didn't do anything?

This has been discussed a lot lately. If you go to the disk space preferences and "update", even if you don't change anything, it may fix the problem. If not, try "giving it more", even if you don't really have that much.
Thanks, but this is the

My preferences are as follows:
Use no more than 0.16 GB disk space
Leave at least 0 GB disk space free
Use no more than 99% of total disk space
This was sufficient for over a year. Now it 'thinks' it needs more, thanks to the server 'upgrade' ... :/

You won't believe it, but saving preferences alone wasn't enough.
I changed the "Leave at least ..." from 0 GB to 0.001 GB and it started downloading again...
