Well, I started to get things going, I created the chroot with ltsp-build-client, then got to the point to expand my base chroot with apt-get install edubuntu-desktop. Things got to the point of configuring acpid then broke hard (errors below). And even with -f options and running dpkg --configure -a I can't get it to move on. I am wondering if when you have done this you stepped in slower, maybe starting with the minimal install, then moving towards edubuntu-desktop? I might wipe the directory and try it that way. Or maybe this is a difference with 7.04.
