server/client same machine,
some basic hardware
zero hardware testing of software.
<add>
Basic required servers (system) – depends on end usage, and boot method, so run down fixed systems, and floating IP crap (DHCP), finish with diskless op (and NFS swap in low mem systems), and boot methods (tftp, pxe). Setting up diskless clients to run only bhpos (i.e. have no other use – more an X-Window op), or other use but no modal swap from bhpos (i.e. clerks can only use bhpos, no access to other things).
