Re: Thin clients
Well I have been working on this for days now and I can't seem to get past
an error from the client saying pxelinuz.0 isn't a valid image.
At the fedup and grumpy stage now, but don't want to let it beat me.
I have googled and tried about everything I could find to get this to
work. So if anyone has a working howto for etch on this subject I would
like to get a copy.
I just don't have enough knowledge about linux so I do need to be spoon feed.
Regards
Fred
