OEM install mode, is the way to go for 80 machines. but for one backup. my
windows drive is is just under 650megs, i dd the disk and burn it to iso
with a tr&b floppy for booting. Just pop it in and walk away. you can
obviously add some to the scripts and setup the partitions on the machine.
Mine hasn't gotten that far it's always the same device.
