Depends on what is the problem. The way I read it, it was tied to using
Skolelinux.
Skolelinux is (please correct me if my description is unfair) a Debian
system enhanced with automated setup to ease administration (as the
local admin will probably be a non-geek teacher).
Lessdisks is based on Debian, but not (yet?) tested and integrated with
Skolelinux.
So sure - go ahead and test lessdisks with Skolelinux, but expect the
Skolelinux part of Skolelinux to break, as some of the tweaks of
Skolelinux and lessdisks will probably clash.
Vagrant (the author of lessdisks) and I are off course most interested
in details about your experiences with this mix (and naturally hope it
works flawlaessly).
