I have installed different versions of LTSP on different distributions - my
experience is that only using .tgz files works best. There are only very few
files affected outside /opt/ltsp, namely the kernels in /tftpboot, the
file /etc/lts.conf and the configuration files that might be modified by the
LTSP setup scripts (NFS exports, DHCP and the like).
Debian + TGZ works fine for me.
