Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

AMD64 as server...but LTSP clients complain about not being amd64?: msg#00042

Subject: AMD64 as server...but LTSP clients complain about not being amd64?

Ok, so I have an AMD64 3500 processor based server running Edubuntu 6.06
natively installed on the hard drive. I used the AMD64 ISO media so as
to get maximum performance from the AMD processor.

I then setup a little Dell Optiplex 800mhz PIII machine to use PXE and
remote boot from the server. It gets an address via DHCP, then it spits
out an error:

"This is not an amd64 machine. Please install the i386 version of Ubuntu"

This is perplexing, as operating as a Terminal server is resource
intensive, I had assumed that using the AMD64 version of edubuntu would
be appropriate to obtain max performance from the server hardware.

So, before I do a wipe and reinstall of the amd64 server with the i386
iso, is there a way to get the server to give out the i386 image via PXE?

TIA! :)
