Single NIC LTSP install using Alkis Georgopoulos' UbuntuLTSP/ltsp-pnp page

[Jim Christiansen]

Hello.  I'm finally replacing my single nic 10.04 Ubontu LTSP classroom
server with a new box.  I have found Alkis' writeup on how to do a single
nic install.  My new system is a 64 bit box and I wonder how I should
generate an i386 image for my classroom clients?

Here's the page that I've been following:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/ltsp-pnp

The instruction:

ltsp-config lts.conf

generates /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/amd64/lts.conf ...  a 64 bit labeled file

ltsp-update-image --arch i386 doesn't work as the --arch isn't recognized...
/usr/sbin/ltsp-update-image: unrecognized option '--arch'

Also, I suppose the procedure only works with a 32 bit system as the
ltsp.conf file listed refers to-

gedit /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf

I sure could use some suggestions.  I had already ordered the parts for a
new server and they arrived last Friday.  I rebuilt an image on my old
Ubuntu server on Monday that includes the mit app inventor.  I powered the
machine off after the image was created to blow it out only to discover
that the power supply was bad and already fried part of the motherboard.  I
had been running it headless and hadn't noticed the video was gone.  I did
notice a smell last week though...   $@#@%@

At least I have the new parts and I'm close to being back up.

Thank everyone
