Please let me know your thoughts on this.

Also, I was thinking we should also opt for the new naming convention of ltsp by alkis. I showed a friend who is very experienced in ltsp. He suggested this.

Normal mode can be proxy dhcp mode or chrootless ltsp.

Normal mode can be proxy dhcp mode or chrootless ltsp.

Can you explain to me what chrootless is? Because I don't know what it means, and I am sure that a normal user (or a teacher) does not know what it means.

chrootless is the ltsp pnp. It is just another name for it. - http://wiki.ltsp.org/wiki/Installation/Ubuntu#B.29_Installing_LTSP_in_.22chrootless.22_.28previously_pnp.29_mode

chrootless is the ltsp pnp

This does not explain what chrootless is (to a beginner like me), because the question becomes: What is ltsp pnp?

d78ui98 commented 6 years ago

okay. Before chrootless. We should know what is chroot. In one of the ltsp setup client boots from the chroot from /opt/ltsp/arch/. An ltsp server can have multiple choots to boot from.

A more simpler setup is ltsp-pnp. This does not involve chroot. There is a single img from which clients boot. No chroot hence chrootless.

But in virtual ltsp server we are using ltsp-pnp only. So I just want to add something to normal mode. normal mode to just normal mode(proxy dhcp)

should we do this?
