Hi Keith, please do remember to check out the onscreen messages. There could be lots of reasons why you have a long boot-time and this will narrow down the problem quite a bit. Gavin On Wed, 02 Sep 2009, Gavin McCullagh wrote: Did you get any clues from the verbose boot screen? Does it

Keith, What version of LTSP are you using? Also, there probably isn't a NBD_SWAP entry in the lts.conf file. You'll need to add it, assuming you are using LTSP-5. Jim McQuillan j...@ltsp.org Keith wrote: I'm a relative novice at the internals of Linux - I'm fine with the admin side - So
