I have received a user experience email, that says that it is okay to have the computers started from a floppy. I was a little afraid that the floppies will get lost one day... In this case I can swap the hub for a switch and be settled. Get ltsp up and running and as soon as ltsp shows that it is happy (correctly configured and correct hardware support), win98 can be removed (or even better the HD can be removed ;) -- Richard Bos Without a home the journey is endless ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
