Overfoldix is a distribution of Linux designed to boot off of a CD and run in a ramdisk, not requiring a Hard Disk Drive. This linux distro is used to help out in the Folding@Home distributed computing project. This is a \'better\' OS for Folding@Home

v0.3z-Ninja -Now uses beta 3.25 client -Uses -forceasm and -advmethods flags -Default username/team :: [OC]FoldingNinjas - team 32
When booting 0.3, Folding is automatically started in the background. If you need to login as root the password is 0verf0ld1x (use 0s for Os and 1s for i's)
Lots of changes in 0.3!! - The libraries and executables have all been updated - Linuxrc has been ditched, the RAMDisk is now a permenant rootfs using /sbin/init - The kernel has been replaced, and is now modular. - Telnet, SSH and FTP capabilities added
As well as Overfoldix I am also working on 'YattaLinux' which will be a server operating system, incorporating Overfoldix. This will allow client machines to boot via the network and fold without requiring any storage devices, just NIC/Mobo/Vcard/CPU/RAM/PSU.
