If you are installing on a new system, you need to have system boot-up from CD/DVD drive (either by selecting BOOT menu, or configuring BIOS settings).
# Upon boot-up, select English language and then select '''"Check (test) for errors"''' to make certain there were no errors during the downloading or burning process.
# If the error checking process was successful, then '''reboot the system'''.

:# '''Make certain that the eth0 interface is connected. In the case for this server, add an extra network card, and use that one to connect to the internet (and use "embedded" or "on-board" network card to connect to the switch for the thin clients) '''. LTSP will use the next available network interface (i.e. eth1) to connect to the switch that will, in turn, connect to the workstations (thin clients).
