Hi Ludwig,
I am not sure about what you will make working?
Localboot = Booting without PXE
Localboot = OTCOS is installed on local Drive
Normaly you want this only if your networkconnection is very slow (<10
MB) to speedup booting
Localboot does not support the same networkdrivers like PXE one... i think
Does the "PXE Booting" working correct..
What networkadapter has your Lenovo?

Hello,
(i missclicked and unfortunatly sent my mail before finishing it, so
here it is again.)
First i have to say that i usually speak german and my english lessons
in school are already a few years in the past, please be patient and
ask if something is incomprehensible. Google Translate will be my
friend ;) What i have to say too ist hat my Linux experience is not
very well so i ask you to describe me solutions step by step please.
And last but not least: I have no idea how this mailinglist is
working, i hope i will ever find my post again! ;)
We are currently testing the OTCL System in our company and are having
some troubles with or on the clients:
It all began with some IGEL Thinclients, low-level hardware but
delivered with a management suite and so on. Just invented ald set up
at some desktops users already began to complain about performance
problems. While viewing and scrolling through .pdf files the screen
refresh rate was that low that the shown file appeared block by block
and line by line. Unacceptable while working with documents containig
a few hundred pages. These problems didn't apear on normal PCs in the
same office, just these Thinclients. So we decided to take a look at
some other systems.
Open Thinclient appears tob e a nice alternative and so we ordered a
blanc Thinclient, without any OS. A lenovo IdeaCentre Q180 with built
in 2,13GHz Dualcore, 2GB Memory, 320GB HDD (i know, unneccesary -.-),
and an ati Radeon 6450 graphics card. Quite a nice equipment for oure
requirements.
After i managed the first hurdle (never used PXE network boot before)
the same problem again:
"...shown file appeared block by block and line by line..."
Well, maybe there's an option to install that OS on the client. I
searched and could find the localboot application. I set up the
application, pushed it to my client and began installing it to the
built in disk. All done, no obvious errors -> reboot.
Boot form disk without any problems, but now i have a few problems:
I'm hanging in a loop of text lines counting up:

If i unplug the mouse it only stops at this line:
"IP-Config: eth0 hardware address 50:af:73:1d:f6:85 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP"
I first thought it is because of a missing or wrong graphics-driver,
but when i add a graphic-card-device containing ati drivers it just
shows an error message:
"Failed to start x-server", so I removed the device (in management suite).
Please help me, I'm glad about every single hint..!
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
