I have been doing Ltsp for over 1 year in production. Using linuxbios on ltsp clients has many advantages, especially the quick boot time.
There should be no problem using linuxbios for ltsp since all ltsp needs is etherboot.
Clustering for the servers would also be favorable. The most efficient way of clustering the ltsp servers is to use the xdmcp chooser protocol. This allows the ltsp client user to choose which server he/she wants to use base on the server load or other criteria. If the load gets too high then linuxbios could quickly fireup another server. Sounds pretty cool, I have not done this.

Hi:
Someone has experience working with LTSP and Linuxbios?
Ltsp (www.ltsp.org) is a powerfull Thin Client solution, were the server makes the hard work.
LinuxBios looks like the perfetc tool to buil expensive cluster servers for LTSP solutions.
I think LinuxBios is probably the perfect tool for building inexpensive clients.
Whether you can cluster the server end of LTSP I have no idea.
