describe how to suppport i386 clients on amd64 LTSP server

  === Use a different LTSP client network ===
  
  192.168.0.0/24 is the default LTSP client network if a machine is installed using the LTSP profile. If lots of LTSP clients are used or if different LTSP servers should serve both i386 and amd64 chroot environments the second preconfigured network 192.168.1.0/24 could be used as well. Edit the file {{{/etc/network/interfaces}}} and adjust the eth1 settings accordingly. Use {{{ldapvi}}} or any other LDAP editor to inspect DNS and DHCP configuration.  
+ 
+ === Add LTSP chroot to support 32-bit-PC clients ===
+ 
+ In case LTSP server and chroot are 64-bit-PC, it is still possible to support older 32-bit systems. At least 20 GiB additional disk space on /opt would be required.
+ 
+  * Run "ltsp-build-client --arch amd64" to create chroot and NBD image. 
+  * Use "ldapvi -ZD '(cn=admin)'" to replace amd64 with i386 (dhcp statements in LDAP for one dedicated network).
+  * Run "service isc-dhcp-server restart".
+  * Edit /etc/debian-edu/pxeinstall.conf (set ltsparch=amd64).
+  * Run 'debian-edu-pxeinstall' to regenerate the PXE menu.
+  * Run 'service nbd-service restart' to serve the new NBD file.
