I've got Ubuntu 7.10 running smooth.

I have an IBM Netstation, with a PPC chip. It has no onboard storage (other than 64Mb RAM). I'd like to play with it as a thin client to my linux box.

I've been looking at LTSP. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPQuickInstall

I'm just wondering, those instructions seem to be for an x86 client. Can I use it for the NetStation?

Yes, you can.
