1) In my opinion you really don't need 2.6 for the clients 2) Having said that I want the soft realtime features for my embedded stuff based on ltsp-4, and it's not trivial. You need to add the module-init-tools-0.9.14.tar.gz to the source of ltst-4, build and use it, as the standard mod-tools don't work for 2.6's. You need to mod the startup scripts to do /sys as well as /proc see: http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/799 So if you succeed I'd LOVE to hear from you!
