You can have many LTSP environment for thin client, but you need the
static dhcp for many filename

Example the /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf I create a group with option for kiosk mode

# test LTSP
                group {
                        option root-path "/opt/ltsp/kiosk";   <==== the kiosk 
mode LTSP
environnment for all PC in the group
                        next-server 195.221.40.200;
                        filename "/ltsp/kiosk/pxelinux.0";
                        # PC (Salle multimedia) prof
                        host lnt-d00048 {
                                hardware ethernet 00:1a:a0:34:43:dc;
                                fixed-address 195.221.40.20;
                                }
                        # PC (Salle multimedia) eleve 1
                        host lnt-d00050 {
                                hardware ethernet 00:1a:a0:34:44:af;
                                fixed-address 195.221.40.21;
                                }

And for other method, you set the filename for every PC:
        host test-ltsp1 {
                        next-server 195.221.40.200;
                        filename "/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.0";
                        option root-path "/opt/ltsp/i386";    <==== the 
standard LTSP environnment
                        hardware ethernet 00:0c:29:27:ec:22;
                        fixed-address 192.168.62.170;
                        }
                # adresse pour test LTSP
                host test-ltsp2 {
                        option root-path "/opt/ltsp/fati386";   <==== the fat 
client LTSP
environnment
                        next-server 195.221.40.200;
                        filename "/ltsp/fati386/pxelinux.0";
                        hardware ethernet 00:0c:29:c6:98:9d;
                        fixed-address 192.168.62.171;
                        }

And all PC use the same LTSP server

# ls /opt/ltsp/
fati386
i386
kiosk

# ls /opt/ltsp/images
fati386.img
i386.img
kiosk.img

etc etc
