Michel,
You are using the 'Ubuntu version of LTSP'. Not the version of LTSP
that we supply on LTSP.org.
I just wanted to make that clear, because I see you are getting some
advice from people who don't understand that there is a difference.
Ubuntu, since version 5.10 (The Breezy Badger release) has included a
version of LTSP that they built from their own set of packages. It is
entirely different from LTSP-4.1.1. The LTSP that Ubuntu has created is
based on the MueKow specification on the LTSP wiki. In fact, Ubuntu has
created the very FIRST implementation of Muekow.
The problem you are running into, trying to get a 32-bit LTSP tree on a
64-bit server should be possible, although, I haven't done it myself.
I suggest that you get into the #ltsp IRC channel and talk to Oliver
Grawert (ogra). He hangs out in the channel almost all the time, and
he's the Ubuntu guy working on the LTSP integration. if anybody has the
answer for you, it would be him.
Cheers,
Jim McQuillan

Sorry , I was not really clear :
I already install the LTSP on the ubuntu x86_64 servers , and build the client
package on it ...
Now I ve ROM-O-Matic created floppy disks , so x86 clients can boot with it and
get the kernels and stuff on the DHCP ubuntu server ....
But those kernel are for x86_64 , so it does not work...
SO how can i Build x86 kernel to be load , on a 64bits server with the
ubuntu-ltsp packages ?
IS that clear ?
Selon Joe Auerbach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I'm not sure I understand. Are you trying to install ubuntu from
floppy, or are you trying to grant each workstation access to only the
floppy drive? or are you trying to install ltsp from floppy? Or is the
floppy irrelevant?
If you are trying to install ubuntu from floppy, I think it's a bad
idea. I'd recommend a network install before that.
If you want the workstations to have access to the floppy drive, I know
some people have had trouble with that in hte past (I think maybe a
permissions problem most of the time?). If you are trying ot install
ltsp from floppy, no problem. I think I recall a disk image floating
around somewhere.
ALso, if you are using ubuntu boot dicks on regular computers to turn
them into booting workstations, I think that's possible as well, but I
can't recall how. Possibly the same disk image as above, but I doubt it.

Hi , I'm trying to setup a x86_64 ubuntu server with pentium 133Mhz as
clients
with only floppy .
I'm trying to use the intergrated packages from ubuntu , is this a good idea
?
right now I can generate x86_64 client builds but did not find a way to
generate
x86 build , did I miss something ?
Should i try the original LTSP package ?
Thanks
