I'm setting up a LTSP 5.3.7 server on mythbuntu 12.04 for serving up fat-clients which will run mythfrontends.
I installed ltsp-server and created my client image like so: $ sudo ltsp-build-client --copy-package-lists --copy-sourceslist --accept-unsigned-packages --apt-keys --fat-client If I rebooted the server my clients could not boot and would hang there with the error message: PXE-E32: TFTP open timeout I had to restart the tftp to get them to boot properly. $ sudo service tftp-hpa restart So I came up with a nasty hack to get this working on boot, but I'm now wondering why it does this and can it be fixed in a more professional way? The Hack Create a file /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa2 with #!/bin/sh sleep 10 service tftpd-hpa restart $ sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa2 $ sudo update-rc.d /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa2 defaults After reboot fat-clients can now boot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
