i have a few IBM PC 340 desktops that have onboard video cards (Cirrus
Logic), about 16 MB of Ram, and about 3 GB of HD space. naturally being
such a slow machine i wanted to use this for LTSP, so i slapped in a
bootable NIC from Intel Pro 100. when i try to take this machine onto
LTSP it gets to the spot where it is starting XFree86, then just sits
there and does nothing. no error message on screen or anything. i have
let it go for a while and it does not proceed. i thought maybe it might
be the onboard video, so i slapped in a PCI based video card, but same
thing happens there too. is the IBM PC 340 just not going to work, i
have tried 2 or 3 and none seem to work.
