| 09:18 | <RolandStiebel[m]> Hi Alkis,
| |
| 09:18 | Roland here, we use your ltsp since last year at our school
| |
| 09:18 | <alkisg> Hello Roland Stiebel
| |
| 09:19 | <RolandStiebel[m]> I would like to use a larger and faster server for the ltsp image, but want to use the "old" machine to generate the ltsp image chrootless as it is the same machjine as the fatclients
| |
| 09:20 | <alkisg> Mount fast-server:/srv/ltsp to old-server:/srv/ltsp via nfs
| |
| 09:20 | Or clone the whole installation into a VM inside fast-server
| |
| 09:21 | <RolandStiebel[m]> Can I simply install ltsp on both machines and then use the org machine to make "ltsp" and then transfer the image to the other?
| |
| 09:21 | <alkisg> Yup
| |
| 09:24 | <RolandStiebel[m]> the fast server sits in an basement room without windows and I want to use a "creator"-pc in my office to maintain the image
| |
| 09:24 | so I install ltsp on both machines, set the basement-server as server, create the image at the office pc and transfer the image to the server ?
| |
| 09:25 | <alkisg> Right
| |
| 09:25 | And you can use the nfs mount I mentioned above to avoid the need to "transfer" stuff
| |
| 09:26 | <RolandStiebel[m]> At the server, do I need to run ltsp-nfs or ltsp-ipxe?
| |
| 09:26 | <alkisg> Yes, all of these
| |
| 09:26 | So that if you power off old-server, the fast-server will run all the necessary services
| |
| 09:26 | And the user accounts also need to be created on fast-server
| |
| 09:26 | <RolandStiebel[m]> yes, that is what I want!
| |
| 09:26 | <alkisg> But do note the VM idea
| |
| 09:27 | E.g. you run virt-manager on fast-server, create a VM with the same contents as your old-server, and you maintain the image there, via a web browser
| |
| 09:27 | Then your old-server can become a normal PC, it doesn't need a disk anymore
| |
| 09:32 | <RolandStiebel[m]> I use USB on the fatclients and I had problems when using a virtualbox image as ltsp source. But this problem is a couple of years old...
| |
| 09:32 | <alkisg> You don't need to install virtualbox-guest-additions inside the image

| 10:34 | <alkisg> The image inside virtualbox or qemu should be byte-to-byte identical to the one you have in old-server

| 11:04 | <alkisg> !lowerc
| |
| 11:04 | <ltspbot> I do not know about 'lowerc', but I do know about these similar topics: 'lowercase-mac'
| |
| 11:04 | <alkisg> !lowercase-mac
| |
| 11:04 | <ltspbot> lowercase-mac: The new ltsp.conf expects mac addresses in lowercase. Here's a command to convert them: sed -E 's/([[:xdigit:]]{1,2}:){5}[[:xdigit:]]{1,2}/\L&/' -i ltsp.conf
