Hi all! I´m new to this list, but not new to k12. I´m happy for that a modern ltsp now is developed for fedora/redhat. I´ve setup stable2 and it works fine until you start to installing things, like for Stephen Crampton From: "Stephen Crampton" <SteveSings gmail com> <ul> <li>To: k12linux-devel-list redhat com <li>Subject: nfsmount:: error mounting 172.31.100.254:/opt/ltsp/i386 <li>Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2009 11:08:59 -0500</ul> <hr>I downloaded DVD Stable 2 and booted from it. I did "Install to Hard Drive." After installation, I did the following to get the mouse to show up: yum -y --enablerepo=updates-testing update xorg-x11-drv-openchrome reboot I followed the instructions in the "K12Linux Quick Start Guide." The only difference with my system is that I am using eth1 for my ltsp network. I booted a client (one that has worked on K12LTSP 5EL). The cliented loaded up through initrd.ltsp Then, I got the following error: mount:: RPC: Authentication error; why = Failed (unspecified error) nfsmount: error mounting 172.31.100.254:/opt/ltsp/i386 on /sysroot as nfs: Bad file descriptor Exactly the same happend to me, after installing freenx and freevo(I believe it was that, but I´ve also tampered with the network, I got 5 eth ports) One of my intentions is to develope a thin client home media server based on ltsp and freevo. Anyone has some comments on that? Also, I would like to add in on the discussion of slow boot/local app´s: I tried to boot 100mbits clients connected after 2 switches. Didn´t work! They boot after 1 switch, though. Gbits clients boots it without prob´s after 2 switches. All the wiring is cat6, and the switches are brand new gbit. This is worrying me. In a large setup you have to count to at least three switches between the clients and the server. I haven´t tried three switches yet with gbit clients. In many school environments you ´ll need three switches, even four, and you can hardly expect all clients to be gbit. Core switch(-es), floor switches, classroom switches Comments?
