I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. I was running LTSP 4.2
on one of my OpenSuse servers and decided I wanted to rebuild that machine
with Ubuntu 8.04 and LTSP5. I have to whine a bit and say the package
descriptions leave a lot to the imagination; I can't tell you what the
difference between ltsp-server and ltsp-server-standalone is except that
maybe the second is more stoic. If it means that other necessary services
also get installed, it would be better to list them explicitly. So, of course
I installed everything with "ltsp" in the name, hoping that apt would pick up
any package conflicts. I ran ltsp-build-client and when that didn't work, I
found the Quick-Install guide installed with ltsp-server. I printed that out,
uninstalled everything with "ltsp" in the name, and followed the
instructions. Now when my client boots it gets as as far as (from memory)
"Loading initrd.img............ready" and just stops there. So, DHCP is
sending it to the right server, it's finding the tftpd server right (I
verified the kernel version) but it's missing something. Ideas? Is there a
log file printed out somewhere? Does NBD need a config file? If I try to
start nbd from /etc/init.d it just quits saying there's nothing to do.
Whether that's correct behavior or not I can't tell. Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
