All,
I have a strange problem with new VIA Eden clients.
The clients will not boot PXE after a warm boot. The message displayed is:
VIA T6102 Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter v2.13 (2002/08/09)
PXE-MOF: Exiting Intel PXE ROM
The clients work perfectly using the standard LTSP 4.1 kernel (2.4)
IGELs work fine. Just set them up for PXE boot in the bios. I also
ripped out the disk-on-chip as well.
I did get best results by setting the /etc/vidlist entry for the IGEL to
use the nsc driver rather than geode

It's pretty easy if you generate a fresh XF86Config for each multihead

Substitute the terminal name for terminal_name eg ws001
Start the terminal in run level 3
At the prompt on the client
# cd
This script (/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/rc.d/hd_swap) can swap on to an MSDOS
file on an existing filesystem if available. It will use a linux swap

I have never used SUSE so I am at a bit of a disadvantage.
The LTS client is set up to emulate a HP Jetdirect, ie when you have the printer
