Thread: low-memory LTSP client
my grandfather 1 of people doesn't waste anything. has one, nice, computer. (which stuffed full of many pc-133 memory sticks hands on , upgraded ubuntu when windows me started misbehaving him.)
has older 75mhz machine, have managed scrounge 24mb of ram. second computer grandmother word-processing type stuff on won't messing desk, doesn't want buy new computer if can avoid it.
believe nice machine robust enough act ltsp server. it's enough worth try anyway, don't that's particularly memory or processor intensive.
unfortunately, 24mb of ram not seem enough thin client boot. turned on nbd swap, , switched out client kernel 386 version instead of generic (it's smaller), still can't manage boot. loads initrd.img, , "kernel panic - not syncing: out of memory , no killable processes.
ltsp project page lists performance of machine these specs acceptable, instructions paring down image work on 1 don't match way ubuntu installation laid out.
can offer me pointers how make work? or need scrap using pre-installed ubuntu ltsp , install scratch myself?
