I  tried this fix from another thread.
In my case(ubuntu 8.10), the problem was caused by the
ltsp-client-setup init script. I solved the issue by comenting out the
stuff about NBD

configure_nbd() {
   # Restart nbd so -persist will work
   nbdcmd=`pgrep -l -f "/dev/nbd0 -persist" | cut -d " " -f "2-"`
   if [ -n "$nbdcmd" ]; then
       nbd-client -d /dev/nbd0
       sleep 0.5s
       nbd-client -c /dev/nbd0
       if [ "$?" = "1" ]; then
           $nbdcmd
       fi
   fi
}

I commented out this part and got a bit further. This is the error I have
now.

Setting up LTSP client...
Disconnecting: que, disconnect, sock, done
[   30.519994] nbd0: Receive control failed (result -32)
Kernel call returned: Broken pipe Reconnecting
Negotiation: ..size = 175556KB
Error: Ioctl/1/1.a failed: Bad file descriptor

Any clues how to fix this?
