# Make certain computer system is connected to the Internet, and peripherals.
# Make certain that Edubuntu installation DVD is placed in the CD/DVD drive, and boot-up the machine.<br />'''Note:''' The current server is configured to boot-up from the CD/DVD drive. 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).
# xUpon boot-up, 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.# Upon re-boot, then select Install as opposed to running the Live system.# You basically follow the install procedure, but I will include subtle areas and recommended settings::# Select "Third Party Applications" in one of the initial installation screen.:# Select the LTSP option, and select the "connected" network interface card. The other network interface card will be connected to the switch that will, in turn, are connected to the workstations (thin clients).:# I would recommend an advanced partitioning if you have more than one hard disk. The current system has two hard disk drives. The first drive is the main system under the mount-point called "/" and the second hard drive has the mount-point called /backup for backing up the system. By correctly specifying these mount-points at this point will allow the system to identify and use these directories when the system is in use.<br /><br />Hard drive A (/dev/sda): Add swap partition for RAM, and add remainding partition aS file-system called ext4 with the mount-point: /<br /><br />Hard drive B (/dev/sdb): Add entire file-system called ext4 with the mount-point called: /backup<br /><br />
