I wonder whether I'd ever use install images on Linux machines.  Maybe. 
  And on Windows it seems to be the best thing going.  But Linux, I

You might look at puppet before you get too deep into cfengine (and 
infrastructures.org):

It may be a little immature but it looks promising.

Both will be well covered at LISA '05, you should go.
