<html><body><div style="color:#000; background-color:#fff; font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt">I had a backend crash and switched linux distro & upgraded mythtv in the process. My backend is now running Ubuntu and mythtv .26. I now need to upgrade my frontends, which are diskless.<br><br>They are running gentoo, but was thinking of switching distros also. Anyone have a recommendation on a distro that supports diskless mythtv frontends. <br><br>I have been struggling now for 2 days trying to get LTSP working (following these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV/Install/Hardy/Diskless), but I seem to have many errors as it does not work. Everything I find in google references onlder versions of Ubuntu (I am running 12.10) on the backend.<br><br>My only requirement is that the frontends boot quickly. The gentoo FE boot from power on to mythtv ready in about 45 seconds
with no hibernation or sleep configured.<br><br>A nice to have would be for the frontends to share the nfs partition (currently have 3 diskless fe). My current setup takes a lot of disk as each FE has its own root nfs mount point. <br><br>Thanks for any recommendations and references.<br><br>Mike<br><div><br></div></div></body></html>
