[Bug 813837] Re: ltsp client not able to load boot file

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

The client tries to download the file ltsp/amd64.tmp/pxelinux.0 but the
real location is ltsp/amd64/pxelinux.0

Quick workaround:
Connect on the server
change to /var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp
and create a symlink 
$ sudo ln -s amd64 amd64.tmp

Title:
  ltsp client not able to load boot file: ltsp/amd64.tmp/pxelinux.0

Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “ltsp” source package in Lucid:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Running lucid-alternate-amd64.iso (10.04.03)

  Both the LTSP server and thin client (pxe boot) are able to obtain an
  IP address from the internal dhcp server.

  The thin client starts to connect and fails with an error unable to
  locate the filename

  I've tested this on kvm and vbox and I get the same result.

  I've run this test several times in the past so I feel I have a good
  handle on it.  Suggestions?
