I just ordered one of these boards a week ago for use on LTSP. They seemed to be 
good value. I had intended to buy another 15 to use as LTSP clients.

I have been successfully used the default LTSP3 kernels up until now and we have 
lots of different hardware.

What was the panic? Can't mount root filesystem?
Is NFS compiled into your kernel?
