the Debian Edu test images for Squeeze can now be used as both CD/DVD images and as USB stick images. To use them as CD/DVD images, burn them to CD or DVD. To use them as USB stick images, just dump the images directly into a USB stick. Something like this should work (if /dev/sdb is your USB stick image): dd bs=1M if=debian-edu-amd64-i386-NETINST-1.iso of=/dev/sdb FIXME: Something is still wrong with this when installing an LTSP Server. (add bug#)
- use 10.0.0.0/8 netmask
- add localadmin local user (who should be able to sudo to root)
