I wanted to clarify my understanding of the hobbit client. I'm back to evaluating Hobbit since BB (even with bbgen and a secondary BBNET machines) is killing a 2.4Ghz dual Xeon with 4GB RAM with its 7000 targets. The standalone client is only for NetBSD, so when i get the whole package and install only the client, I can delete hobbit related files in /usr/local? I.e. I'm downloading it to /usr/local/ out of habit, using ./configure --client and after the make and make install, do I need anything that's left in /usr/local/hobbit, since the client folder goes to /home/hobbit? Just trying to eliminate extraneous stuff on the machine. Thanks!
The only directory that the Hobbit client uses when it runs is the one you specify during configuration:
Where do you want the Hobbit installation [/home/hobbit] ?
So if you setup the Hobbit user with home-directory /home/hobbit and used that (the default value) when configuring the client, then you do not need any of the files in /usr/local.
