[luau] Proposed LTSP Server Config

[Hawaii Linux Institute]

Warren-

As I am sure you are aware, most KM266 based boards are configured to be 
network-bootable.  Have you had any real life success story in using a 
KM266 system (e.g., ShuttleX SK41G or MSI 6252) as a thin client?

The reason I mentioned this is that, b/c of the salty air and lack of 
air-conditioning in many homes and buildings, our hardware deteriorates 
faster than typically in the mainland.  It is a noble idea to make the 
best use of outdated computers, but some thoughts probably should be 
given to utilizing new but cheap thin clients.
