I thought I should let the computers settle in a bit and let the users get used to them. As well as how it's all configured I'll cover how we've continued to deploy the computers to other classrooms and thanks to Simon McCartney, we've switched to using NFS home mounts, giving a very elegant roaming profile solution; although we had a few permission problems that are now solved. And I'll throw in a few photos too :) There’s been a bit of a delay but part 2 is coming shortly. I thought I should let the computers settle in a bit and let the users get used to them.

I would like to make a suggestion as well: it would be awesome if you could also include a bit on the human aspect, how you managed to get both the teachers and students to be interested. This is great, all the best with the project! Hi Andrew,

This is great, all the best with the project!

Week one has had a few hiccups (my fault) but overall has been a very positive experience for all. I Phil, I think that's a great idea, I'd love to be able to help anyone else planning it.

Could I make a suggestion/request? A follow up with a link to the packages used and configuration procedure would be a useful resource for others in your situation. Best of luck with the project Hi Andrew,
