Maybe it's too old? Even with the option: --extra-help? ...strange... Actually, I don't know much about that kiwi implementation of ltsp. Tried it some time several yrs ago, but abandoned it due to complications. But I guess you can run it in the live DVD, or if you install it on a external usb drive? Also, you can consider Alkis suggestion to use ltsp-pnp. With that you got some good simplicity enhancements, but a trade off is less flexibility. You can not use different images for different needs and architectures, all clients need to use the same. In my setups I have preferred to use normal ltsp, but for sure, with a less complicated environment ltsp-pnp would be useful. Though for me, I prefer the flexibility of having the choice of different chroots. > I attach one of my old dhcpd.conf files for you to have a look at. > Thank you very much, I will have a look at that next :) Regards Rolf -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.

Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Ang: Re: Client stops at setting up NIC
This is an up-to-date tutorial, with an up-to-date distro (ubuntu 16.04, proposed DE=mate), with an up-to-date ltsp, with an up-to-date kernel, with an up-to-date xorg: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ltsp-pnp You can easily install it to VM or a USB stick or USB disk and test in any environment you like. When you're changing networks, the only thing to run is: sudo ltsp-config dnsmasq --overwrite -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.

Hi, Rolf! -Rolf-Werner Eilertskrev: - Till: ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net Från: Rolf-Werner Eilert Datum: 2017-02-21 17:35 Ärende: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Ang: Re: Client stops at setting up NIC Hi Johan, thanks for that idea. I downloaded and burned one and will test as soon as possible. But: Wouldn't it be possible to let ltsp make a new 64bit image instead of the i386.img it made now? Sure, you can build many types of images with ltsp-build-client. There are many different options, like architecture, name, place, what is included, etc. I have run ltsp servers with multiple different images for multiple different client types. Just run this, and you get a list of the options: ltsp-build-client --extra-help I see there is a two-step booting: First 1. /srv/tftpboot/boot/initrd-ltsp /srv/tftpboot/boot/linux-ltsp are loaded and executed (and my linux-ltsp is from 2012). Then I would expect 2. /srv/kiwi-ltsp/i386.img to be loaded and run. This img was made new when I invoked ltsp-built-client the other day. The /etc/dhcpd.conf points to pxelinux.0 to boot from, is that correct? I attach one of my old dhcpd.conf files for you to have a look at. Maybe I'm getting something completely wrong here, but if I could get my new NUC running on the old server, I could make a direct test under working conditions.
