A friend tried this in the last week and was frustrated that there seemed to be no way to limit CPU/GPU use to only work relaed to Covid.

Is there a way to limit work to Covid?

I tried this the other day and ran into the same issue.

Couldn't figure out a way to set it to covid.

there are detailed steps in the arch wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/BOINC

however it seems that folding@home isn't on BOINC. Either that or I am misinterpreting: https://foldingathome.org/faqs/high-performance/fah-on-boinc...
