okay bestie, you found the man page for debian-edu-ltsp-initrd β it's section 8 of the manual, it lives under the Debian Edu Admin Tools umbrella, and honestly? it's a little one but it's doing the lord's work. sit down, grab a boba π§, let's get into it.
β¨ NAME β¨
debian-edu-ltsp-initrd β update the ltsp.img file on a Debian Edu LTSP server, for each and every use case π¦
π SYNOPSIS π
debian-edu-ltsp-initrd
no flags. no args. no drama. it's giving just run me energy. π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
so the way that this works is: this is a wrapper script around the ltsp initrd command. like, it's not out here reinventing the wheel, it's just making sure the wheel gets delivered to the right address. πβ¨
what it does, specifically, is make sure that a use case specific initrd gets generated at:
/srv/tftp/ltsp/ltsp.img
β¦and then it moves that file over to the use case related directory. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic, lowkey, but essential. π
β οΈ bestie, listen. you need to run this command after you've modified the[clients]section of/etc/ltsp/ltsp.conf. don't be out here editing your config and then forgetting to regenerate β that's how you end up with a whole lot of confused thin clients and zero explanation. π run it after. periodt.
