You don't usually install a full desktop environment in the chroot, which is I think what you are trying to do. The client is only a means to an end (getting to LDM and thus to desktop environment on the server). I think you're doing the fat client thing with ltsp, which isn't the norm, although it will work I understand. -- Chris Roberts +--+--+ | Distribution | Debian Etch | | LTSP Version | 5.1.10-1~40 | | Windows Manager | KDE 3.5.5| | Kernel | 2.6.26-bpo.1-686 | +--+--+ | Distribution | Debian Lenny | | LTSP Version | 5.1.10-2 | | Windows Manager | KDE 3.5.10 | | Kernel | 2.6.26-2-686 | +--+--+ -- Register Now Save for Velocity, the Web Performance Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] small chroot environement
What do you mean by small? The default is the smallest as far as I know - not even nfs or manpages are installed. So at least for the main distributions you won't get it much smaller - one way to do that might be to compile a custom kernel for your thin clients. 2009/4/28 ebarde...@iris-group.it: Hi, do you know how to create a small chroot environment for ltsp clients?

Emanuele why is the size of the chroot of the slightest concern? I cannot see how it affects you in any way James -- Register Now Save for Velocity, the Web Performance Operations Conference from O'Reilly Media.
