Hi Ernesto, I am trying to set-up a mixed thin-client and fat-client LTSP server on Ubuntu 8.10. The thin-client part is working absolutely fine.
The fat-client part just doesn't boot beyond dhcp and successfully getting an IP. I have set-up the 'fat' part following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPFatClients and slightly modifying the workstation script given therein but nothing to do with nbd. It seems that it is getting stuck just while executing nbd-client .... I suspect it has to do something with /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/ltsp_nbd . Could you please share with me what changes, if any you made to this or any other file to work around your problem. Thanks in advance, SB PS: I have also directly mailed to a few of you who were earlier helping on this issue, apart from through the list, as this is very urgent. Please don't mind.
