[K12OSN] client booting linux stalls

[Joshua Trimm]

Johan, I have 5.4.5-21 being pushed to the repo's today which should fix 
the scripts to accept an interface regardless of its name.

The reason NFS needs to be started manually is due to the RPM not 
knowing which interface you will be using for the LTSP network. This 
must be defined in /etc/ltsp/ltsp-server.conf before ltsp-server-tweaks 
and ltsp-server-initialize are run.
