I also have some questions.

Can I ran BOINC directly without attaching any screen?
I am thinking at connecting to a usb charging port (max 2V) and leave it running 24/7.

I also am a bit confused which BOINC projects can be run on the Raspberry Pi 2.
From http://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php for example, WCG supports android running on ARM. But since Raspberry Pi 2 is based on ARM and it can run Android or Windows 10, should it work also for WCG?
For me it is not so clear to which OS/CPU architecture the "raspberry" picture from projects refers to.

Yes, you can use Boinccmd to manage Boinc instead of using the GUI Boinc Manager.

It depends which OS you're running, the usual OS is Raspbian, this is a Debian port, So any projects that have Arm or Armv7 apps on Linux.

Hi, just saw your post.

If you managed to run wcg on RBP2, which OS did you use and how long does it take to finish a WU?

Regards

I will check and get back to you on how long it takes to run a work unit.

I am using Raspbian OS on my Raspberry Pi 2. I am running Boinc Manager Version 7.0.27 (x86). It looks like it is taking about 22 hours to do a work unit. That is without any tweaking, you know running multiple cores. This is all thanks to Claggy and MarkJ. I am hoping to soon power it via solar power.
