= Installation Repositories =

All the required sources are available in [source:trunk/technical/ this repository].

The sources distinguish between
  * [source:trunk/technical/boot/netboot netboot]: mini linux for client installation
  * [source:trunk/technical/common common]: needed by both, client and server
  * [source:trunk/technical/lib/ lib]: common library functions, needed by client and server
  * [source:trunk/technical/client client]: only needed by client
  * [source:trunk/technical/server server]: server components
  * [source:trunk/technical/external external]: required packages that are not (has not been)  part of the distribution or required patches

SmartClient itself should work with most Linux distributions.

The installation with netboot is distribution independent.

Main parts of the SmartClient framework are written in Perl and should also work on most Linux distributions.

However, most installations are done with Suse Linux.

Prepackaged RPMs are created by the [http://build.opensuse.org openSUSE Build Service],
which is capable to create RPMS (and DEBs) for many distributions.

== Client ==

The client repository includes also the required components from [source:trunk/technical/common common] and [source:trunk/technical/lib lib].
