There is now only one P2 bug left to fix before the release. This is the bug about usb stick hotplugging failing to work on diskless workstations. I lack the machines to test this, but am very willing to help. We need someone with two machines, one for the server and one for the thin client / diskless workstation. Anyone have any idea why usb sticks do not work on diskless workstations? One idea is that /media/ is read-only. The workaround is to tell LTSP to make it writable. Another is that ltspfs is confusing udev, and blocking the mount of usb sticks. Not quite sure how that could be. A third is that the installation of usbmount might interfer with the hal/udev stuff. Not quite sure how that could be either. So, if anyone are able to test and propose a fix for this issue, I would be most grateful. If we manage to fix it today, we can release rc5 with no RC bugs included, and do the final testing on this one before we release.
