No, in LTSP the one root filesystem image is static data shared between all clients of a given arch and can't be regenerated except by reinstalling LTSP: thus it belongs in /usr not /var. Also it is "architecture independent" from a Debian packaging perspective as the architecture of the clients need not match the architecture of the file server; it would make sense to have an i386 LTSP root fs stored on a Sparc NFS server, for instance. Thus /usr/share is the correct location. | > Now i need to have a swapfile folder where all the NFS_Swap files for | > the clints can be.

Possibly /var/tmp or /var/lib would also be an option? Not sure which of the three is best, though. Cameron.
