Greetings
I've been using LTSP since prior to 2005. I used it for a while with an
X interface. Then I had it set up for our businesses text based
application for terminals out in our shop without X. These text based
terminals have been working almost flawlessly with the exceptions of
fans and floppy failures. Back then, I even chose to recompile LTSP
with support to change the behavior of the function keys.
Because of some changes in Management requirements, I am once again
attempting to use LTSP for graphical uses.
I am primarily a Centos Server Admin and Suse workstation users, however
when I saw that most LTSP installations are Ubuntu based, I figured it
would be easier to try it with Ubuntu.
I am at the point where I am attempting to get the first client going.
It is a retired desktop with an amd athlon64 processor.
I am using my existing dhcpd.conf and adding another class to control
the behavior of the graphical clients in the same manner I control
clients from the three different buildings to use thier local tftp and
nfs servers.
class "ltsp15" {
match pick-first-value (option dhcp-client-identifier, hardware);
# new ltsp
next-server 172.17.10.146;
filename "/ltsp/i386/vmlinuz";
option root-path "172.17.10.146:/opt/ltsp/i386";
#filename "/ltsp/amd64/vmlinuz";
#option root-path "172.17.10.146:/opt/ltsp/amd64";
# old ltsp
#next-server 172.17.0.20;
#filename "/lts/vmlinuz-2.4.26-ltsp-1";
log(info,"ltsp15 CLASS !!");
}
subclass "ltsp15" 1:0:2:55:6a:c7:1a;
I have attempted to boot both the i386 and the amd64 kernel, but both
boot with the error "segment does not fit in any memory region". Which
makes me think it is an architecture issue. Googling confirmed my
suspicion which is why I tried the i386.
Hoping someone can point me in the correct direction.
