Hi there It looks like "BerryTerminal" is exactly what Ian was after at the Saturday workshop, a Linux distro for LTSP/Raspberry Pi: "BerryTerminal is a minimal Linux distribution designed to turn the Raspberry Pi mini computer into a low-cost thin client. It allows users to login to a central Edubuntu or other LTSP server, and run applications on the central server. " http://www.berryterminal.com/doku.php/start NB: It's still labeled "alpha".

Hi Peter and All, Thanks for spotting the LTSP for Raspberry Pi. I still have the Edubuntu LTSP demo kit from the 23 July Monday night meeting. I'll bring it along to Rene's demo of Raspberry Pi on Monday, 27 August. It seems that the LTSP OS is booted in from the Raspberry Pi's on-board SD card. I guess that's because it doesn't have the equivalent of a PXE LAN boot in firmware to initiate a network download of its OS image from the Edubuntu server. ...so I'll also bring a SD card with the Berry-Terminal OS loaded on it. cheers, Ian.
