Installing Debian from partition image



I need to install Debian on twenty computers, for desktop use. I intend
making a partition image, and restoring the partition image on the twenty
computers. And Gilles Mocellin had suggested using DSH when it is necessary
to run a command on all computers.

Installing the partition from the Debian 4.0r0 multi-arch DVD, without any
updates to it, will allow easy replication, since the DVD is widely
available, right?

I haven't created/installed from partition image before. Are there any
pitfalls that I need to be careful of?

I am looking at Mondo Rescue, and PartImage. Which of these is better for
this task?

I looked at Beowulf, but it appears to be too much work. Is there any easy
way of making a computer cluster out of these computers that have already
been purchased?
