[Pkg-ltsp-devel] Bug#537374: ltsp-client-core: When using NBD and Busybox is installed in the client, lts.conf is not downloaded

[Tobias Gruetzmacher]

Package: ltsp-client-core
Version: 5.1.10-2
Severity: normal

I tried using NBD root (which, sadly, is much under-documented) and read
about the really useful feature to pull lts.conf via TFTP, so you don't
have to rebuild the root image again and again. Unfortunately I didn't
get it to work at first. While debugging the initramfs I noticed that
"tftp" calls the busybox tftp and not the one the hook script put into
/bin/tftp. Since the syntax of those tools is totally different, the
transfer failed every time. I would suggest to include the full path in
the initramfs script.

This problem is still present in the unstable version 5.1.76-1.
