Configuring the slave nodes is actually the same as configuring the master node, except that we do not need a Samba server on it. Instead, we have to configure the automount to mount the share of the master node. Also, we have to modify the network configuration.
The slave nodes will not be booted from external microSD cards. Instead, the operating system will be booted from internal eMMC memory. To install Ubuntu into the internal eMMC, you can create an installation card exactly as described for the master node.
