Thank you for the doc. My project with testing LTSP NFS is on standby for now.

I'll let you know if I found anything interesting to note when I come back to it.

Thank you for the tip ! Good to know. 



I tested it with your instructions and with `unsquashfs` and it worked. 
I have described the NFS configration here: [ http://dashohoxha.fs.al/ltsp-scenarios/#org9be607e | http://dashohoxha.fs.al/ltsp-scenarios/#org9be607e ] 
Please let me know if I have missed anything that I should have mentioned.

You can also use 'unsquashfs` to uncompress a "chrootless" 
/opt/ltsp/amd64.img image into a /opt/ltsp/amd64 chroot, 
i.e. instead of using ltsp-build-client, to start the chroot with a 
snapshot of the server installation.
