Modify /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf so that, based on the MAC addresses of the
clients, they load the image at /opt/ltsp-fat rather than the one at
/opt/ltsp.

If you need more info, I can look at my settings file at school, but
they've blocked my home email, so send me a reminder at Todd dot
OBryan at jefferson dot kyschools dot us and I can tell you exactly
what to put in there.
