Do you have a website that details TBAR's procedure?
Yeah, I'll get it in shape and post a link.
I think that would help alot, thanks!!
Well, this took a bit longer than planned.
(Does the term "scope creep" ring a bell, anyone?)
But I've got a web page together that documents doing TBAR's AIO, and have documented, updated and tested the package for later releases as well.
I'd appreciate any feedback or corrections, as applicable. I'm going to link a few other things related to BOINC on both Linux and Windows that might be useful.
Just my small attempt to give back a bit, in honor of the folks that gave me so much patient help as I was getting started.
Many thanks to Jim for putting up this updated guide to the Berkeley installer version of the AIO (All-in-One) Boinc installation.
Now . . . . New! With shiny bold flavor!
I've been using a variant of TBar's AIO for years as the default Team client. Simplifies managing Boinc and its projects immensely compared to the sometime, flaky, faulty distro released versions of Boinc.
A Proud member of the O.F.A. (Old Farts Association). Be well, do good work, and keep in touch.® (Garrison Keillor) I want some more patience. RIGHT NOW!
My pleasure! It's been fun putting this together, and I hope others will find it useful.
I'll be adding a few other things to the page, including links into the BOINC site related to installation and operation that are sometimes hard to find. Also have a few fun things I've done here regarding system status and operation that I'll add links to and info about.

Yeah probably..sorry...here's the Linux directions:
Install software
Instructions
Download for Debian
We recommend installing the BOINC client directly from the Ubuntu/Debian repositories.
In a terminal window, run the following command:
Set the BOINC client to automatically start after you restart your computer:
Start the BOINC client:
Allow group access to client access file:
Add your Linux user to the BOINC group to allow the BOINC Manager to communicate with the BOINC client:
Allow your terminal to pick up the privileges of the new group:
In the same terminal window, start the BOINC Manager:
When BOINC Manager opens, select World Community Grid from the list of BOINC projects then enter your World Community Grid username and password.
When these steps are completed, you should see a screen to confirm that you've been successfully signed up to World Community Grid.
You have downloaded the Ubuntu/Debian software.
