Thank you. Yes, that was it.

Now I unplugged the cable from eth0 (the outwards-pointing NIC). So 
right now this network has only two computers:

Edubuntu server -> eth0 -> thin client


Now, when I boot the client, it does get past the "Loading 192..." 
stage. And indeed, I get a few pages worth of boot up info. It's still 
not booting completely, but I'll post the errors on another thread 
because it's a different issue.

Thank you so much for your help. I probably would have spent days before 
thinking of that.

Cheers,
Daniel.
