Hello,

I'm new to ltsp and have a default setup working.  Now I would like to 
try to integrate into our network.

That means:
- an already existing seperate dhcp server
- an already existing seperate tftp server
- a new ltsp server

I can configure (for now) that when my client does a pxe boot it gets 
the correct tftp server:

host linutop.UGent.be { fixed-address 157.193.39.120; hardware ethernet 
00:40:ca:a2:9f:91; next-server wopr; filename "pxelinux.0"; }

wopr is the tftp server

My pxe config file has:
wopr:/srv/tftp/fai/pxelinux.cfg# cat 9DC12778
DEFAULT linutop ro initrd=linutop.img quiet splash


When I pxe boot the client it finds the linutop kernel and linutop.img 
file.  But then I fail into the busybox shell.

I clearly haven't configured where he needs to get his root file system. 
  From the ltsp server.

How do I this?  I thought I should be able to do that from the 
pxelinux.cf directory.

Thank you in advance,
