I'm attaching a untested patch which modifies ltsp-update-image and update-kernels so that they (hopefully) work correctly when nbd port != 2000.
I didn't test it because I would prefer a more drastic solution. Here's the current situation: * update-kernels creates a pxelinux.cfg/default on the chroot, taking into account the settings from $chroot/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf. * ltsp-update-kernels blindly copies that to the tftp dir, even if the target already exists. * ltsp-update-image tries to fix the tftp file with `sed` if another port is required, and tries to update $chroot/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf. Of course the next time ltsp-update-kernels is ran, all the `sed`ding is lost, as the tftp file is blindly overwritten. Here's what I propose instead: * update-kernels doesn't have enough info to properly create a pxelinux.cfg/default, so it shouldn't bother at all. E.g. it doesn't know if a different nbd port is required (while ltsp-update-image knows that). * ltsp-update-kernels shouldn't blindly copy the chroot file to the tftp dir. It should either create the tftp file from scratch using the correct settings found in /etc/ltsp/ltsp-update-kernels, and overriden by per-chroot-settings on $chroot/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf, or it should sed the file. * Any script interested in modifying the kernel settings (like ltsp-update-image) should modify $chroot/etc/ltsp/update-kernels.conf instead, and if it wants an instant update of the tftp file, it should call ltsp-update-kernels.
