You can, but I think it would be easier to do a clean install of K12LTSP and then copy all your existing user IDs and files to the K12LTSP server. Getting the LTSP parts to work right is trickier than copying a bunch of user IDs and homedirs from one machine to another.<div class="im">

Sorry, I meant to say k12ltsp-EL. My question is, if I already have CentOS installed, can I install K12ltsp-EL over it? Thanks<br>

I don't think K12Linux (which is LTSP 5 on top of Fedora 10 or 11 at<br>
this point) will run on Centos currently. Centos 5 is a respin of<br>
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5; I know Warren and some other RH<br>
folks were working on it at one point, but I think they concluded<br>
there were too many missing pieces, although I forget the<br>
particulars. RHEL is anticipated to arrive sometime in the first<br>
half of 2010, with Centos 6 presumably following shortly after,<br>
although RH has not made any announcements to such a schedule.<br>
These are likely to have proper support for LTSP 5.<br>
<br>
So, today your choices are either run K12LTSP-EL which is LTSP 4.2<br>
on Centos 5, or K12Linux which is LTSP 5 on Fedora 10 (or there's a<br>
beta on Fedora 11). The former is solid, if a bit weak in client<br>
sound, and works well with lower end client hardware. The latter is<br>
better if you have newer client hardware, e.g., sound just works,<br>
newer video chipsets just work, etc.<br>

I have no dvd drive, and no flash drive over 4gb, so I thought I<br>
could install Centos and install a package from there. Is this<br>
possible? If not, how should I get K12linux EL installed? Thanks.<br>
