I could do this, but what I'm trying to do is not to have some K12LTSP
terminals and some Windows terminals. Instead, I'm trying to make it so
that every terminal on bootup has 'Load Windows' and 'Load Linux'.
Inside Windows I would like the normal Windows DHCP server and settings
to be used, and I'd like Etherboot and K12LTSP to use the K12LTSP DHCP
server.
Therefore I have to make sure that Etherboot and DHClient only talk to
the correct server, and that the K12LTSP server only talks to the
correct clients!
Thanks for the suggestion anyway!
