Installation Repositories

All the required sources are available in this repository.

The sources distinguish between

• netboot: mini linux for client installation
• common: needed by both, client and server
• lib: common library functions, needed by client and server
• client: only needed by client
• server: server components
• 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 ​openSUSE Build Service, which is capable to create RPMS (and DEBs) for many distributions.

Client
