That almost defeats the purpose of using LTSP in general, but it is impossible
for me in my situation.
I am working with 2 test systems and will be handling a large number of
systems soon. These systems come to me with a blank hard drive, no floppies,
and no CD-ROM. At this point, the entire
Hi Offray,
I am interested to have a solution on reading lfrom local CDrom and burning
on local CDwriter, preferably without a hard disc, making use of the
resource from the Terminal Server. Wolfgang has done a good job on local
floppy drive.

Hi,
I was thinking about access to local devices too. The simplest way I can
concive is put a minimal Linux system on the local hard disk of the
client with the necesary stuff to make that local devices (floppy,
cdrom, etc) works and load the graphical X from the ltsp Server.
I will be working o

Because it boots up from the network in a couple of seconds after
reading in and executing Etherboot, as opposed tens of seconds reading
the whole floppy. And with t

Thank you, Jason. You've given me some good info on what to search for (I've
found lots of time it's very difficult to search for a topic because the
choice of key words can be too wide, and it takes too long to sort through
and try different combinations), as well as some very useful informat

Hal,
You do not need ENBD unless the controlling scripts are
running on the LTSP *server* in which case they need access
over the network to the client drive. From what it sounds
like, this is not what you want.
Many people have modified and played around with the
rc.local script in LTSP to get

It certainly is. This is sta
If you are using a floppy, why not put the kernel on the floppy, with

You can still use dhcp to assign ip.

The older Trident cards require an X-server that comes with XFree86 3.x. I
believe LTSP 3.0 defaults to XFree86 4.x. Make sure you have XFree86 v3.x
on your server, use it and the default SVGA server to get X up and running,
then fine tune it.
Truthfully, the quickest way to get your X-server ru

Now, I want to configure another NIC card. My idea
is to use one card for DHCP, DNS, NFS and the other for LTSP, XFS. ¿Is that
possible?
I install the card, but when the workstation boots
it hangs.
