Holy noodle, that looks like awesome stuff! The only limitation would seem to be systems with varying hard disk size. But then I think. "You could set up a system with a smallish /usr/local as the last slice, then ghost it on to your clients, and have a script to growfs /usr/local to the end of the disk." But, I don't know for growfs, and I'm concerned that you'd have to do some magic to the partition table first. Maybe someone is already doing something of similar cleverosity? (And would care to comment.)
