hey i was curious about what kinds of quick installers are out there? 
methods for imaging many computers easily and quickly, something that i
could start and walk away from? i know redhat has something but i hear its
bloated and hard to work with sometimes, could a script be set up to do
this? using dd or something? and what if i just tarred up a system and
then untarred it to another? i would have to reinstall grub on the new
system but aside from that wouldnt it work? or is the kernel dependent on
being in a specific spot on the HD or Partition? i ask because i want to
make reconstruction cd's :) ohh and one other question, what if it takes
multiple cds to store the os? how would that be set up? ive dont a little
browsing online but was curious what the gurus do :) figured some of you
did some script fu. thanks for any help
