People who know what they are doing, also know that networking, nbd,
dhcp, tftp servers and firewall etc has to be configured, the LTSP
wiki page cannot cover the tutorial for all of those and assume that
the prior knowledge of the servers and configuration involved from the
sysadmins.

For the users who don't know anything about the various services
involved, it is best that we do it for them and they can poke the
configuration files later if they are interested.

With virtualization it is easy to have dedicated LTSP server on which
no other service is configured, so we can replace/enhance/configure
any configuration file that is required for LTSP set up to just work.

Only configuration file you need to work with is
/etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp (IMAGETYPE="NFS") and switches for
kiwi-ltsp-setup ( -t). Do not change TFTPBOOTPATH as /srv/tftpboot is
where kiwi installs boot images.
