Fwd: i386 clients not booting as thin client

[roman.meier@gismap.ch]

Hi folks,

I'm still stuck here not being able to boot my clients as "thin client".

Any ideas what is causing this?

Kind regards,
Roman

In older versions of Debian Edu I was able to edit file /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/lts.conf and add FAT_RAM_THRESHOLD=1000 for all clients having less than 1GB RAM to boot as thin client instead of diskless workstation. This is not working for me anymore.
