You don't need to access the /linuxrc script to modify the mount parameters.
Take a look at this wiki page:

Basically, you can pass any nfs options you want, via the 'MOPTS' parameter.

Keep in mind that you need to allocate enough video ram to support the

With LTSP, the default color depth is 16-bits (2 bytes).
