Sorry, wrong links in that other message - these are for the
Centos4 based version:

       ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/4.2.1EL/iso/
       rsync -Pav k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us::K12LTSP-pre .

Their web site is usually out of date so the best place to check
is the k12osn mail list and the wiki at
http://www.k12ltsp.org/phpwiki/
