You can install LTSP-4 by using the instructions on the 
http://www.ltsp.org/ltsp-4.html#installation page.  This page explains how 
to use the "wget" utility to automate the download/installation of LTSP.

This FAQ is to help with downloading the necessary files to a local system 
directory for use in installing LTSP from locally available files rather 
than using the ltsp.org web site.

First, you need to setup a storage location on your system for housing the 
files to be used in the installation of LTSP.  

Suggested directories would be:

/usr/local/ltsp-4
/usr/local/ltsp-4/ltsp

The first file to obtain is the installer.  This is a file called 
ltsp_installer and it is retrieved from http://www.ltsp.org via the "wget" 
utility.  

You can do this by typing:

wget http://www.ltsp.org/ltsp_installer

Place this file into the /usr/local/ltsp-4 directory.

The rest of the needed files are located at http://www.ltsp.org/ltsp

From http://www.ltsp.org/ltsp, you will need to download the ltsp.manifest 
file into the /usr/local/ltsp-4 directory and them rename this file from 
ltsp.manfest to just manifest.  You can do this by typing the following while 
in the /usr/local/ltsp-4 directory after you have downloaded the file:

mv ltsp.manifest manifest.  

All of the other files should be downloaded into the /usr/local/ltsp-4/ltsp 
directory.

Once you have all of the files downloaded into the directories, you are ready 
to run the installer.  To do this, you will need to be logged into the system 
as root and change directories to the /usr/local/ltsp-4 directory.

The first thing you will need to do is set the permissions on the 
ltsp_installer to be executable.  

You can do this by typing:

chmod a+x ./ltsp/ltsp_installer

Now, from the /usr/local/ltsp-4 directory, you can run the ltsp installer by 
typing:

./ltsp/ltsp_installer

This will start the ltsp-4 installer utility.  

You will receive a screen with following:

*LTSP Installer - v0.03
*
*Welcome to the LTSP Installer.
*
*This program will retrieve the LTSP packages and install them
*for you.
*
*Please select where you want to retrieve the packages from:
*
*  1)  http://www.ltsp.org
*
*  2)  Local disk (current directory)
*
*  q)  Quit installation
*
*Make a selection:

For this installation you will want to choose option #2.

You will then receive a screen that looks like this:

*LTSP Installer - v0.03
*
*Select which group of packages you want to install:
*
*  1)  ltsp       Linux Terminal Server Project - Version 4
*
*Make a selection (Q=Quit):
 
Choose option #1 (Since that is the only option.:))

This will present a screen that looks like this:

*LTSP Installer - v0.03
*
*This group contains more than 1 component, which component
*do you want to install:
*
*   1)  ltsp_core
*        unknown
*
*   2)  ltsp_debug_tools
*        unknown
*
*   3)  ltsp_x_core
*        unknown
*
*   4)  ltsp_x_addtl_fonts
*        unknown
*
*Make a selection (Q=Quit, A=All):

Type A for all and press enter.  This will start the installation process.  
You will then be prompted with a question to verify that you are sure that you 
want to install All components. Simply type Y and press enter to proceed with 
the installation of the components.

Next, you will be prompted with a question for which directory you wish to 
install LTSP into.  Suggested directory is to use /opt/ltsp-4 for the ltsp-4 
installation.  You can then use ltsp-5 for the version 5 installation in the 
future as an example.

If the /opt/ltsp-4 directory does not exist, you will be prompted of this and 
asked if you wish to create the directory.  Type Y and press enter to proceed.

That should do it.  The files should be extracted and installed into the 
/opt/ltsp-4 directory.
