As part of the neverending drive to make LTSP available to the masses ;-)
we're looking for some magic to detect the NIC and video card in old PCs.
Now it's vital to examine the NIC and get the right image from rom-o-matic,
and put this on a floppy in order to get it on the network. This is scary for
an uninitiated teacher in a school that likes the idea of LTSP, but have little
technical experience.
We have dabbled with some programs that claim to find ISA cards, but
have not had much success. So I wondered if anyone on this list has tried
to put together a floppy that will find the NIC and video card, report it to
screen or perhaps initialize the NIC and send it to the LTSP server to have
it automagically update the files involved there. Or have any ideas how this
should be done. Or even tell us that we are out of our minds to even
suggest it.
