Default Bootable Remote Desktop Client?

I picked up a WYSE C10LE thin client.
VIA 1 GHz.processor.
I upgraded the RAM to 2GB
Gigabit ethernet.

The internal boot flash drive is only 128MB.
Don't know if it's locked down or if I can
just install something else on it.
It appears that you can plug in a laptop IDE
drive, but there's nowhere inside to put it.
That kinda defeats the purpose.
I'm likely to lose interest before I get that far.

I can boot Puppy (MACPUP 5.50) and Hirens
from USB CD or Flash drive. But it takes a while.

Does a credible job of monitoring a network security
camera using about 1.5 watts.

I thought I'd try using it as a remote
desktop client to control win7 and win10 computers remotely.

I'd like to boot it from a USB flash drive. A full distribution
is rather heavy for this machine. Puppy is the fallback position.

I downloaded thinclient demo on CD.
It gets past vmlinuz, but locks up at initrd.
I really don't want to delve into why.

Any others that I should try that might just work?
