That is not true. The squash image is used ALL THE TIME a client runs

BUT you could keep /opt/ltsp/i386 somewhere else or symlinked and just keep 
the small /opt/ltsp/image/i386.img where it is.

Rules are simple: tftp will not follow a sym link, so no tftp files on a sym 
link. I don't know if nbd is fussy. Perhaps try.
