There's some work involved...
1. is being paranoid and checking the rig all the time for errors
2. is that you need to run -verbosity 9 and be prepared to post your logfiles for Stanford to examine when there are errors
3. you must join the betateam on the folding community boards
* I only beta test on a couple of slow machines that I can check daily. I've lost some points doing beta because of core65 errors when I wasn't there to restart it. I've gotten mostly tinker WU's and even genome WU's since joining the beta testers.
