I guess you're right, I hadn't really thought that way. I'll research a
little on that.
Guess it would be feasible to store a tar somewhere of an installed system,
and then have a boot disk which:
o Partitions the disk
o untars the image
o modifies any system specific bits (hostname, ip, etc)
o runs lilo to make the system bootable
Doesn't sound tough.
