Guys

If you want to download a boot image I would recommend version 5.1.3 
www.rom-o-matic.com/5.1.3 I know this version works correctly I'm not so
sure about 5.0.8,9 or 5.1.7.

I will be bringing along a LTSP server running on an Athlon XP1800
processor with SuSE 8.1 and 1 or 2 lowish spec boxes without hard discs.
I will bring along a 10BaseT hub, but if anyone has a spare 100BaseT
switch the performance will be far snappier as thin-client computing
relies on sending small packets of data very often.
