Yep. We discussed dd and partimage several times at labs. The sticking
point is resizing the partitions after cloning. The second step adds
complexity and time. Once volunteers are knocking out 8 boxes per lab again
and we have a good supply of prepared hard drives in reserve, we will
certainly give both programs a second look.

Have you seen this ? Cheaper than Ghost!
Partimage
Description: Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX utility which saves partitions in many formats (see below) to an image file. The image file can be compressed in the GZIP/BZIP2 formats to save disk space, and split into multiple files to be copied on removable floppies (ZIP for example), ... Partitions can be saved across the network since version 0.6.0.
