How to install BOINC on Rocky 9

Rocky Linux Tech Help
1

I just finished setting up Rocky 9 on a spare computer and going through through the pain of getting NVIDIA 470 driver installed so BOINC could have access to CUDA. Then I hit the brick wall. There is no BOINC in the repo. I run BOINC on my spare machines and use it to kick the tires on different distros until I need to put those machines into service for a project.

Is there a link with detailed instructions on how to get BOINC installed and operational or did I just waste a few hours?

Thanks,

According to this site for searching for packages: https://pkgs.org/search/?q=boinc

It exists in EPEL, so:

dnf install epel-release
dnf install boinc-client

or if you need the manager as well:

dnf install boinc-manager
