Adding the x2go-tce.sessions session configuration file to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
+ === Required unless using the X2Go Session Broker: Adding the x2go-tce.sessions session configuration file to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
  Again, this is assuming you already have an existing, working HTTP or FTP server setup.
    * run X2GoClient on any computer you like, and configure a session the same way it should appear on the ThinClient <note tip>when using a Windows client, run x2goclient.exe --portable, or it will store the session information in the registry, rather than in a "sessions" file.</note>
    * locate the "sessions" file you just created - it should be at ~/.x2goclient/sessions
    * copy it to x2go-tce.sessions
    * using an editor of your choice, edit x2go-tce.sessions so it contains only the sessions you want to appear on the ThinClient, and none that might have been created earlier.
    * log on to your HTTP or FTP server and change to the x2go-tce directory in your
webroot/ftproot.
    * copy the x2go-tce.sessions file with your desired configuration to this directory.
  
- === Adding the x2go-tce.authorized_keys keyfile to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
+ === Optional: Adding the x2go-tce.authorized_keys keyfile to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
  Again, this is assuming you already have an existing, working HTTP or FTP server setup.
    * locate your current authorized_keys file - it should be at ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
    * copy it to x2go-tce.authorized_keys
    * using an editor of your choice, edit x2go-tce.authorized_keys so it contains only the keys you want to appear on the ThinClient, and none that might have been created for a different purpose.
    * log on to your HTTP or FTP server and change to the x2go-tce directory in your webroot/ftproot.
    * copy the x2go-tce.authorized_keys file with your desired configuration to this directory.
  
  
- === Adding the x2go-tce.xorg.conf file to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
+ === Optional: Adding
the x2go-tce.xorg.conf file to your HTTP or FTP Server ===
  Again, this is assuming you already have an existing, working HTTP or FTP server setup.
    * copy the xorg.conf file from the working system to x2go-tce.xorg.conf - actually, to something that lets you tell which hardware it is made for, like x2go-tce-old-P4-whitebox-with-crappy-VGA.xorg.conf
    * log on to your HTTP or FTP server and change to the x2go-tce directory in your webroot/ftproot.
    * copy the x2go-tce.xorg.conf file (or whatever you named it) with your desired configuration to this directory.

+ ==== 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.
+   * After that, your ThinClient should boot the X2Go-TCE image.
+ To make the X2Go-TCE image the default 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''
