I have set up a minimal Ubuntu 14.04 server, then install ubuntu-desktop

With Intel finally moving past Imagination Technologies for their Atom

Alkis, thanks for your response. Mine is inline.

List,
I have attached a simple bash script that I recently put together to
help automate the initial setup of a new server for testing,
redeployment, etc. The server's role in this case is just to pxe-boot
the client and pass it to a Windows remote desktop server, so the
script is tailored accordi

This system has no user account besides the one I created during
initial installation, as the thin clients are only used for Windows
Remote Desktop. In fact

Thank you for the response. I was under a bit of pressure and ended up
just rebuilding my server from scratch :(and forgot to back up my 300+

Hey gang,
I had a working Ubuntu 10.10 server (no desktop, just doing RDP here).
I wanted to upgrade the server to 11.04, so I did the responsible
thing and rolled out a fresh 11.04 virtual machine for testing. The
testing went well, so I upgraded the server using 'do-release-upgrade'
on the CLI.

I tested a couple of t5325, and while they are small, inexpensive, and
very low power, there is no obvious method to net-boot them

Makes sense. I'm using the XINITRC_PROMPT_ON_EXIT=True option to
prevent the loop, so would you recommend inserting that logic into
/opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/ltsp/xinitrc?
