in my sources.lst I have as first the skolelinux repositories, then
the normal etch repository (mirrors).
So I guess it's the second.
I didn't dist-upgrade the ltsp envirorment yet.

Moving a partition needs these 3 agjustment:
1-WHERE AM I?
the system has to know in wich partition it is /. For example, my /
was the hda7 partition.
Now it is hda6. So I have to modify /etc/fstab to telle skolelinux
where the root is.
2-I CAN'T SEE!
I have an nvidia card and I was using its module. Restoring the
partition in another machine, X will not work because it try to use
the nvidia module. So I modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf chainging 'drvier
"nvidia"' with 'driver "vesa"'.
3-WHO START ME?
Ok, now I have everything ready to run...but I have to set up the
booloader (BL) somewhere.
First of all we adjust the file /boot/grub/menu.lst with the right
partition names.
In my case, (hd0,6) became (hd0,5) and hda7 became hda6.
Now we miss only to setup the BL. I installed it in the MBR.
Run "grub" and give this 3 command
> root (hd0,5)
> setup (hd0)
> quit
These are the values I used, but you have to change them.
root (hd0,5) is where the second stage of grub is found
setup (hd0) is where grub (stage 1) get installed. (If not partitions
are given, it means the MBR).
>>Problem: the network does not worl as aspected. The two "fake"
>>ethernet card are called eth3 and eth4 instead of eth0 and eth2.
I deleted the file /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules as josè
wrote and it worked!!!!
Now I have my eth0 and eth1 back :)
(CORRECT ME IF I'M WORNG)
Actualy the workstations are not capable to load their home dir
because the mac address is changed so the value does not match in the
ldap database and the nfs mount does not work.
In my case, I have no problem of security, I can let anyone mount the
home folder of the pupils. So if I remove the maginc group in the
/etc/eports I do not have to add each workstation right?
Thankyou all.
