Thinking about thin clients, is there anything out there that works with my Synology NAS? I would love to just net boot a RPi into the Synology UI, do t see that happening any time soon.

You can always use a netboot distro of some sort via pxe.

You can net boot a Raspberry Pi, but not into Synology Disk Station - only to Raspberry Pi OSs. I don't remember if it's possible through NOOBS, but BerryBoot will let you boot from a network drive (haven't actually tried it yet).

You can (somewhat) easily have a raspberry pi boot right into a web browser and load a certain page. Is that what your looking for? I might have notes as to how I set that up before.

David Peach?, that might be something fun to play with! There are all kinds of projects I have floating around in my head that can take advantage of that. Really not the solution I want but I feel like that might be a good compromises to get a few of them running.

This might be what you need.

Dan Hockey?, that is an article I am going to keep close at hand. I think I remember hearing you don't need to keep the SD card in if you are using a Pi3.
