I do not believe it is documented yet. This is the new PXE meny with installer and boot selection option. It should sho up on the skolelinux network. Thin clients should still boot automatically as before on the thin client network without such PXE menu. I recently added code to add a diskless workstation option to the PXE (by running ltsp-make-client during installation on combined main-server+thin-client-server installations), and this might have messed up the LTSP chroot a bit. We are working on weeding out the remaining bugs > When choosing "LTSP diskless workstation", the boot-image hangs after a > few seconds.

Some claim the issue is DNS resolver related, and changing etc/hosts and/or etc/resolv.conf solve it. I am not yet sure what the problem is nor how to fix it.
