Hello. No one knows if it's possible for the clients to use a different NFS server as rootfs instead of the LTSP server? Thanks

set cmdline_method root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=${srv}:/srv/ltsp ltsp.image=images/${img}.img loop.max_part=9 --- ${srv} can be set freely here?

Does LTSP support booting non-Debian based Linux environments? I'm trying to get a vmdk of Arch to boot, but I'm fighting nfsroot mounting early in the booting phase.
21:24
I get the feeling that the kernel init is not compatible?
21:29
<vagrantc>
in theory it is possible, but not well tested ...
21:31
unfortunately development is a bit stalled at the moment...
21:33
<_TheWalrus_Work>
okay, thanks for the info! I was really just playing around, and kinda assumed it may not work. I can stick with Debian for all of my needs
22:07
<vagrantc>
i do recall some experiments with just running various ISOs as an
22:07
LTSP base ...
22:08
but that was quite some years ago
