Ooops. ;-)

It's not that hard to get back to where you were.

# This part is not strictly necessary, it just saves you bandwidth
mkdir /opt/ltsptest
cp -a /opt/ltsp/pkg_cache /opt/ltsptest/

Run ltspadmin and change the directory it installs into to
/opt/ltsptest.  Install ltsp.  Exit ltspadmin.

Stop nfs before continuing.

mv  /opt/ltsp /opt/ltsp.broken
mv /opt/ltsptest /opt/ltsp
mv /opt/ltsp.broken /opt/ltsptest

Add /opt/ltsptest to /etc/exports
Restart NFS.
edit /etc/dhcpd.conf so that one terminal (and only one terminal) uses
/opt/ltsptest instead of /opt/ltsp:

#DHCP server configuration
**snip*
# Default root path
 option root-path          "192.168.0.254:/opt/ltsp/i386";

# Test terminals come first because I change them often
# Override the root path for this one terminal
 host ws10 { 
       hardware ethernet ae:cc:cc:8f:8e:8d;
       fixed-address ws10;
       option root-path  "192.168.0.254:/opt/ltsptest/i386";
           }


These instructions get you two things: a working environment for most of
your terminals, and a sandbox you can use for tests without worrying
about production machines.
