The LTSP packages already are packages that can be added to any installation. The new hardy method of modifying an existing ubuntu desktop installation hides the fact the terminal server functions are provided by only a handful of packages that can be installed in any *buntu flavour. At a school I moved to edubuntu I used an ubuntu server installation that I then installed the packages xorg-x11, ltsp-server, xfce4, firefox and openoffice on. ltsp-server pulled in dependencies of the daemons and tools necessary for creating and booting a thin client environment. This method means each thin client uses less resources and I was able to mostly side step the persistent process problem since none of the gnome applications that cause the issue in the first place are installed.
