I'm setting up LTSP at my elementary school for 50 New Internet Computers (thin clients) using a P4 Server with 1GB RAM with an Intel board and two NICS. The server with Redhat 9.1 and LTSP loads fine. I need help getting the clients to boot.
I'm a very new user with Linux and LTSP. I need simple instructions, please. Here's the problem as I see it unfold. The client starts, finds the DHCP server, and goes into the TFTP. The lines of text whiz by no problem for a while. The client receives an IP, mounts the root filesystem at 10.21.121.1 (our server's address) and mounts /opt/ltsp/i386. It started device management daemon for /dev, mounts /proc filesystem, creates ramdisk on /tmp and then lists the client host name NIC.7643. And there it sits! It sits there a long time and then spits out mount: RPC: timed out and NFS mount failed: bad file descriptor. NFS mount program didn't pass remote address. It next shows that it is not mounting 10.21.121.1 as expected but mounting 192.168.0.254:/usr/x11R6/lib/x11/fonts. Please help! What file do I need to find? What needs to be changed? I've done a search for the string 192.168.0.254 thinking I might find it that way, but no file was found other than the error message text that I typed in one day. Thanks in advance for your help.
