lessdisks

in /etc/lessdisks of the terminals chroot (by default /var/lib/lessdisks/etc/lessdisks) several configuration files and additional sub dirs with config files are to be found.

when you're about to treat terminals as different, first consider the file terminal_names.conf.
as example (for two terminals named moon and turtle) this file looks like:

# each line includes the name and macaddress

# other values for terminal configuration can be found in
# /etc/lessdisks/terminals/$hostname

#name macaddress
default none
moon 00:xx:BF:D6:EA:xx
turtle 00:xx:BF:D4:A8:xx

and the output from ls -al in /etc/lessdisks/terminals:

drwxrwsr-x 2 root lessdisks 4096 2005-01-17 11:39 .
drwxrwsr-x 8 root lessdisks 4096 2005-01-16 15:10 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 12 2005-01-01 12:04 default
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 74 2005-01-16 20:24 moon
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 75 2005-01-16 17:05 turtle
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 3186 2004-11-03 14:13 XF86Config.default
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 2525 2004-11-04 08:25 XF86Config.moon
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root lessdisks 4380 2005-01-01 13:22 XF86Config.turtle

the above listed file moon looks like this:

runlevel=5
xserver=/usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3
session="autofs printer_parallel"

this terminal will come up with a login window (XDMCP)
it has a graphics card supported only by xfree version 3.3.6 so we will use that old X-Server XF86_S3.
two session scripts will be executed on start up, too.
