Hi Thomas,

I try to set up an environment where the user can choose between:

• diskless booting an operating system (no x2go)

• booting a small operating system and use x2go.

we are using the debian live project on a few hundred terminals (running x2go/freerdp/firefox) and are very happy with it.

It is very debian style, so if you are familiar to it, you will fell at ease, and you can install what ever packet you want from the debian repositories in order to get your local netbooting terminal the way you want.

The only downside might be the startup time, which is slower than a dedicated solution.

HTH, Cheers,

Denis

I looked at the TCE documentation:

http://www.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:components:tce

Is this maintained and used in production? Unfortunately the set up explained there allows only one boot image. But I need other images. At least one with Ubuntu 12.04.

For the non-x2go images I use this path:

/tftpboot/os/IMAGE-NAME

Is it possible to use scripts like x2gothinclientmanagement with a different path?

Since the other images use ubuntu, it would be nice if the x2go image would use ubuntu, too. What do you use?

A different way would be this: Don't use different boot-images, but use one boot image which gives you a login screen where you can choose between working local and working with x2go.

Regards, Thomas Güttler
