Hey Todd, not sure if this will help, but if you go to the /var/lib/
tftpboot/ltsp/your.fat.image/lts.conf file and type:
SCREEN_02=shell
SCREEN_07=ldm
(without the bullets, and maybe with a restart of your client). Then,
when you reboot and are sitting at a client you hit F2 and you will be
brought into maybe it's called, "console" but I think of it as
"terminal" but on the local client, not on the server. Of course you
can do any change on the client, remove this and that or whatever, and
upon reboot you get a fresh system without your modifications.
Anyway, hope this works on fat clients, not just thin clients--I'm
still trying to figure out fat clients. Anyone?
