Edubunty 6.10 - "can't access tty" on client-side...

Hello everyone.  I've been lurking through the archives and on the
Ubuntu forum for several days regarding a problem I'm having with the
clients connecting to the thin terminal server.  I did some research
last night on the LTSP site, specifically here which I'm going to try
this morning:

Basically, when I boot up a thin client via PXE, it successfully
receives the DHCP address from the server.  It looks like it's going to
connect and the Edubuntu splash screen pops up.  Then, I receive the
"/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned of" with a very limited
command prompt.

Just curious to find out if there are additional steps I need to follow
on the "getting started" page on the Edubuntu site.

Thx much, in advance, with any info anyone might provide.

Regards,
Kory
