Hi,
Some months ago I was working on integrating SystemImager into LTSP. The
idea was to run the installation scripts from an LTSP environment
instead of running them from a custom initrd.
Why do this? Well, right now, if you want to modify some of this
scripts, you have to regenerate the initrd and put it into the right
place. As you usually make mistakes you have to repeat the process
several times, which is a bit tedious. Things become worse when you need
to regenerate the BOEL binaries tar ball, for example to update some of
its utilities. It also a pain when something fails in the middle of an
installation and you have to find out what happened from a so limited
busy box environment.
So, what do we get from this? With LTSP we get a chroot of a standard
distribution mounted through NFS, which means we can modify any file and
install/upgrade any package in a really easy way. This makes it easier
to test new functionality and debug problems.
With the attached patch I've succeeded doing installations with both
rsync and BitTorrent, but there's still a lot of work do. I've not
tested multicast and SSH installations, support for all installation
parameters is incomplete and some other things don't work as they should.
As I don't think I'll be able to work on this anymore, I drop it here in
the hope someone finds it useful. Apart from the patch, I've also
attached the instructions on how to integrate the SystemImager scripts
into the LTSP chroot.
Cheers,
Àlex

I've tested it mainly with Fedora, but I also did some tests with Ubuntu. So
I'll explain first how to do it with Fedora and then the steps that are
different for Ubuntu.
1. Set up LTSP following these instructions:
