==== Final Steps to boot a ThinClient ====
To boot your first X2Go-TCE ThinClient (again, this is assuming you already have an existing, working PXE/TFTP server setup in place)
* Determine the MAC address of your ThinClient. In the following example, we will assume it is ''AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF''.
* Change to the pxelinux.cfg directory in your tftproot.
- * create a symlink with the name ''01-AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF'' (note the extra "01-" at the beginning) pointing to
x2goö-tce.
+ * create a symlink with the name ''01-AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF'' (note the extra "01-" at the beginning) pointing to x2go-tce.
* After that, your ThinClient should boot the X2Go-TCE image.
- To make the X2Go-TCE image the default image:
+
+ To make the X2Go-TCE image the default and only boot image:
* Change to the pxelinux.cfg directory in your tftproot.
* run ''ls -lah default''
* Make a note where this symlink points to, if it is a symlink.
* If it is not a symlink, but a regular file, rename it e.g. to ''default-before-x2go-tce''
* create a new symlink named ''default'' that points to ''x2go-tce''
+
+ To create several configurations to accommodate varying hardware/use cases, but all booting the same basic image:
+ * Change to the pxelinux.cfg directory in your tftproot.
+ * copy the file x2go-tce to an appropriate name, like x2go-tce-debug or x2go-tce-P4-whitebox-with-crappy-VGA
+ * you can create as many such configuration files as you
want, and edit them according to the use case
+ * to make a particular client boot a particular configuration,
+ * Determine the MAC address of your ThinClient. In the following example, we will assume it is ''AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF''.
+ * create a symlink with the name ''01-AA-BB-CC-DD-EE-FF'' (note the extra "01-" at the beginning) pointing to x2go-tce-whatever-name-you-chose.
+ * After that, your ThinClient should boot the X2Go-TCE image.
+ * Note that it is possible to use partial matching, so a symlink starting with "01-AA-BB-CC" would match all ThinClients with a MAC address starting with "AA-BB-CC" and so on.
+ * For further matching options (IP-based, for example), please consult the pxeboot documentation.
