Hi-
Yes, the remote updating relies on a writeable FAT partition somewhere on 
the system. Most of our systems have small HDs in them, but this could 
also work with the flash-based thin clients from Wyse (which I am going to 
test as soon as I find some time)
It's amazing to see 6-year-old Pentium 3s run Windows XP much faster than 
our ~1.5 GHz P4 desktops in the rest of the school :D

PS. Entirely unrelated, but maybe someone has seen this before. We are 
having a heck of a time using Mini-ITX boards with our Cisco switches. The 
Ethernet interface is reporting lots of framing errors, and the throughput 
drops very low. Unfortunately, our TFTP server is a Mini-ITX machine, and 
it has started acting up after a recent power outage. Has anyone seen 
this?

Thank you for making such an able platform!

PPS. Is there any chance that you will add PNAgent support to PXES's ICA 
support? PNAgent is the system where the user logs into the local machine 
and fetches a list of applications from the Citrix server, and then the 
user runs each app in its own window on the local machine. If I get some 
time I'll try to fiddle around with it myself with oroborus.
