Unfortunately I need to travel in the other direction and will be away
for the rest of the week.

I suspect it is something simple I need to do to get the eMac to work
work with ltsp. I know it will netboot to an Apple server because that is
how I do network installs.

If you start a mac with the option key depressed, it should find and list
the available boot options. Nothing other than the hd shows up in this case.
I went into the system configuration and forced it to boot from the network
on startup. Still nothing.

When I get back on Monday, are there suggestions on where to start
debugging this?
