For what it's worth, I manage all of my images with a Debian netbook
running DRBL and Clonezilla.  I can provide imaging services, fat
client booting, thin-client booting, and net-installs to *any*
computer that can pxe boot.  Clonezilla is great for keeping test
images, or for doing pxe installs to a virtualized server.
