[K12OSN] Physically thin clients crashing when trying to boot

[Gary Nutbeam]

Nothing in the logs. It seems like my clients were too old, i.e. lacking 
the resources. Replaced them with the 1700s from 
disklessworkstations.com. Now they work :-D

There was a kernel parameter in the pxelinux.cfg/default file 
"video=LVDS-1:d" that once removed, got the nvidia system booting.

I'm going to open a new thread on the LDM problem I'm having though. 
Seems unstable, to put it mildly.
