Dear Terry -
That's very kind of you. I have forwarded your message
to Scott Kruger,
who has been tracking down exactly what the issue is.
It appears to be a
motherboard failure. Cosmology@home is running on a
dual Opteron platform.
It does not appear to be a hard drive problem. Even if
it had been , we
store all our programs and data on that server
completely redundantly,
plus we backed up daily so all the scientific results
of cosmology@home
so far are protected. If you do have a way of
communicating with at
least some of our users, this would also be a good
message to get out there.
All the best,
Ben
