DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Introducing the DSL terminal server

I just made some updates to the terminal server script that allows DSL to act as a PXE boot server. A small change to the linuxrc allows to PXE boot without the need for an nfs daemon -- the KNOPPIX-file is copied to the initrd.

The script now creates the modified initrd itself, reducing the size of the tarball (automatically downloaded) to about 350kB. Setting up is even easier than using the Knoppix terminal server because you do not need to know which network cards the clients use.

You'll find the TSE-script here:
