Meanwhile a figure out the solution, to rebuild /opt/ltsp/i386/ without an internet connection ... 1.) mount cdrom 2.) mv /usr/share/ltsp/plugin/ltsp-build-client/Ubunut/010-security-mirror / 3.) sudo ltsp-build-client --arch i386 --mirror file:///cdrom After the ltsp-root is builded and the clients are booting, clean up the server and copy the file back with 4.) mv /010-security-mirror /usr/share/ltsp/plugin/ltsp-build-client/Ubuntu/ This worked now on my test system, We are going to test this morning at the college may this solve the issues also there ...
