Hello Edmarcos, This is not impossible, but is quite a real challenge, as you'll need to specify, for each workstation, which kernel will be used --- what can be a real pain. So you'll need to identify each station to the DHCP server, and create a host entry for it. (Não é impossível, mas vai

Hi Helmut, LTSP 5 uses lts.conf in /var/lib/tftpboot/i386, as stated by Keith. The file in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc is just a dummy file, and there's a lot of problems you have if you try using it. PS: Antonio, evite postar em português na lista internacional, nem sempre você vai ter sorte de

I'm not sure what a solution is.  Part of it may be solved by distros offering, or users posting instructions how to make, scaled down light versions of the kernel, and udev rules, which will eliminate some of the bloat. Hi, That's a really interesting coincidence: I'm working on a very

Hi Erwin, As long as you have enough RAM on the server, you don't need to worry with swap. The hard question here is, how much RAM is enough? With LTSP, is harder to say, as you need to multiply the expected comsumption of one desktop user by the number of simultaneous users. The swap space is

I strongly suggest you to not use the same network address for two interfaces in the same machine. So, if you have eth0 set to 192.168.1.6, you should change the addresses of the terminals to, i.e., 192.168.2.x. Note that this arrangement can bring you problems on configuring DHCP, as it cannot
