We have finally distributed a handful of LTSP clients to two of our schools as a "test" to see how it was going to work out and so forth. We're using Dell GX520's with 2Gig of RAM as the server in both locations running Gig up until the client boxes which are Dell GX150's and 240's with 100M NIC's. Each of the two schools have 15 clients running off each server. We have had no such complaints from one of our schools, but one is having an issue where when booting the client PC it PXE boots, pulls an IP, loads the OS and then sticks at a "Ready" prompt. If it stays there for more than 6'ish seconds then forget it...it's stuck. Otherwise within seconds it continues and we get a login screen.
Now these PC's that stick at "Ready"...we usually hold in the power button until the PC dies and then turn it back on and try again. The problem is sporadic among the machines, sometimes it will finally kick in on the 5th reboot, sometimes the 2nd. It's getting old. Anyone seen such a problem? We updated the Bios version on these PC's, but it didn't seem to help. Thanks very much for even reading this. By the way....we are running Edubuntu 7.04.
