Easily mass-installing and configuring PCs on the LAN according to a
certain policy is going to be largely covered by the
cluster-installation spec:

 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetbootManagement

This is approved for Dapper with medium priority. A more complex system
is unrealistic in the Dapper timeframe, but we can certainly look at it
for Dapper+1. The best way to start that effort would be for you to
write a spec on the wiki that includes all the features you would want
in such a system.
