That may eat up too much memory on your old machine, though - so do this: 1) Install hotplug in your lessdisks chroot 2) edit your your /etc/lessdisks/terminals/<terminal_name>: runlevel=2 3) boot the diskless client and do an lsmod 4) edit your your /etc/lessdisks/terminals/<terminal_name>: runlevel=4 modules="uhci_hcd psmouse" (adjust the above to the actual list of USB- and mouse-related modules - - quite possibly more is needed, and the order of them is important too. Sorry, I have no concrete example, but I am positive it will work) 5) Remove hotplug from your diskless chroot 6) Boot your diskless client and hope it works... - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDXgxVn7DbMsAkQLgRAll/AKCN7ooGMurnwpzQLAbjgREDozQdAQCfdbKN of/jTIO6CjChglxQcqQr2aA= =MC41 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
