Comment:
improve caveat regarding the ltsp command

  
  The ''debian-edu-ltsp-install'' tool is a wrapper script for {{{ltsp image}}}, {{{ltsp kernel}}} and {{{ltsp ipxe}}}. It is used to setup and configure diskless workstation support; in addition thin clients (both 64-Bit and 32-Bit PC) are supported using !X2Go. See {{{man debian-edu-ltsp-install}}} or the script content to see how it works. All configuration is contained in the script itself (here documents) to facilitate site specific adjustments.
  
- Please note that the ''ltsp'' tool has to be used carefully. For example, {{{ltsp image /}}} would fail to generate the SquashFS image in case of Debian machines, and {{{ltsp ipxe}}} would fail to generate the iPXE menu correctly.
+ Please note that the ''ltsp'' tool has to be used carefully. For example, {{{ltsp image /}}} would fail to generate the SquashFS image in case of Debian machines (these have a separate /boot partition by default), and {{{ltsp ipxe}}} would fail to generate the iPXE menu correctly (due to Debian Edu's thin client support).
  
  Examples how to use the wrapper script ''debian-edu-ltsp-install'' instead:
   * {{{debian-edu-ltsp-install --arch amd64}}} creates 64-bit diskless workstation support.
