Hi I am having a really bad time with Ltsp-5 on Debians -Lenny and Etch as well as Ubuntu 8, while my Ltsp-4.2 is still working like a song. Mostly problems with nbd and tftpd.
While using Lenny, the client booting ends at loading pxelinux0.default. But the same problem don't exist loading from Windows 2003 server. The only problem with 4.2 is that kernel is 2.4 without the drivers for newer NICs like Realtek 8169. Is it ok to compile a custom kernel (2.6.xx) for ltsp 4.2 and keep away from LTSP5? As of now, i need to use rdesktop with sound and video working from the clients. Is there anything that I will miss out? regards Nataraj On Sat, Dec 20, 2008 at 5:38 AM, Vagrant Cascadian <[email protected]> wrote: > On Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 03:24:43PM -0800, Slawek Drabot wrote: >> Are there any instructions available for compiling a custom kernel for LTSP >> 5? >> >> I have asked this question a number of times, and I've seen it asked on >> various forums as well with no answer. >> >> It seems really odd that there are such detailed instructions available for >> LTSP4.x, with kernel kits etc., while there's nothing on LTSP5. > > well, the instructions should be the same as for building a kernel on your > host > distro. there's nothing LTSP-specific about it with LTSP5. > > find instructions for your distro (i.e. Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu or whatever), > build a kernel package, and install it into the LTSP chroot, maybe run > ltsp-update-image and ltsp-update-kernels afterwards. > > live well, > vagrant > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > _____________________________________________________________________ > Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
