I should also complete the instructions ;-)

To simplify things a bit, I made K12LTSP meta packages. You can grab
just the group of packages you are interested in:

         apt-get update
         apt-get install k12ltsp-core      # LTSP
         apt-get install k12ltsp-education # Education apps
         apt-get install k12ltsp-utilities # yum, mondo, squidguard, etc
         apt-get install k12ltsp-extras  # icewm, openoffice-extras, etc



If you install the k12ltsp-core package via apt-get/yum/up2date, you
must manually run the initialization script:

         /opt/ltsp/templates/k12ltsp/K12Linux-initialized


Then reboot the server, cross your fingers, and try to boot a terminal ;-)
