LTSP on Ubuntu

[Christoffer Olsen]

The skolelinux homepages should have explicit directions. But a few
words about the project: The rely on the untrained school staff to run
the things, and they base themselves on Debian Stable (think they moved
to Sarge after a while though). That might be good or bad depending on
how you want things. Installation is set to be as generic as possible,
only going across three steps.

I've worked/am working with Ubuntu and LTSP, recently installing Hoary
for use across 70 clients. Works like a charm. Installing LTSP is pretty
simple.

On the packaging: My work will provide LTSP and some extra packages for
Ubuntu Hoary in a little while, so I hope that could be to use for
someone else as well. http://www.ltsp.org provides generic installation
instructions, and they work fairly well. Everything that LTS needs is in
main or universe.
