Well, not exactly, but you still can boot from the hard disk.

You won't need the /opt/ltsp/i386 directory.  That stays on the server.

And you can't use the vmlinuz-2.4.19-ltsp-1 kernel, because that is
tagged for Etherboot, and you can't just boot it from a hard drive.

What you can do is take the ltsp_initrd_kit, and in there is the raw
Linux kernel and the gzipped initrd file.

Take those 2 files and put them on the hard drive, and setup lilo or
grub to boot the kernel and load the initrd.

That should take care of it.
