How can I set up a test K12LTSP installation to finish wiki documentation?

Originally by linagee

Requirements for setting up a simulation K12LTSP:

Computer One with: (this will the be the "server")

  • Harddrive that can be erased (at least 2082MB)
  • CD-ROM drive
  • NIC (connected to same subnet as computer two)
  • Monitor (optional, but you'll have to swap back and forth without)
  • Keyboard/Mouse/other bare essentials. (Can be shared between computers if you're really adventurous.)
  • Recommended PII 500Mhz or greater
  • Recommended 256MB or greater

Computer Two with: (this will be the "client")

  • (You do not have to destroy the harddrive of computer two if using a boot floppy. Do this at your own risk, of course.)
  • Monitor
  • Keyboard/Mouse/other bare essentials.
  • NIC (connected to same subnet as computer one)
  • Any one of:
    • Etherboot boot disk (specific to your NIC)
    • Boot disk above, but imaged onto harddrive
    • NIC w/ Etherboot ROM onboard
    • PXE magic (beyond scope of this Wiki)
  • Recommended Pentium 200Mhz or greater
  • Recommended 32MB or greater

Other requirements:

  • Ability to write an ISO or access to someone with K12LTSP discs.

Steps to set up simulation K12LTSP:

  • Obtain K12LTSP ISO images from [http://k12ltsp.org/download.html]?. (I will be using K12LTSP 3.1.0, I'm not sure what version they had at the Hickman Elementary installation.)
  • Burn ISOs? to CDs?
  • Install Redhat using the LTSP configuration (Using procedure listed on http://k12ltsp.org/install.html#network_plan all the way until the end of that page.)

This is still incomplete. More to come...
