Talk:Lessdisks Class

first off, who wrote this? from the ip address, it is obviously someone on the inside :)

secondly, is this a planned class, or an already done class?

thirdly, there are a few over-simplifications:

both lessdisks and ltsp can be configured to download a kernel over NFS or TFTP.

"lessdisks has terminals by default" what does that mean?

lessdisks actually defaults to using XDMCP, just like ltsp does.

and lastly:

it may be interesting to note that future versions of LTSP will likely also be in a chroot environment: http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/MueKow http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/ltsp

live well, vagrant

Who do you think wrote it? Who else would irritate you so much talking about lessdisks.

This is a planned class, and the notes are purely for the instructor to know what topics to cover. Your objections are rather tetchy as well as being wrong. In order: lessdisks isn't configured by default to use TFTP, LTSP is. The fact that either of them can be configured in any way is rather irrelevant to an introduction to lessdisks and its differences. Lessdisks has virtual terminals (gettys) by default, LTSP now has the ability to be configured to have them. Lessdisks asks you what you want to do related to X, LTSP defaults to XDMCP. And what is coming isn't particularly relevant to an introduction to the current lessdisks.
