Do some google searches for kickstart or look at http://www.centos.org/docs/4/html/rhel-sag-en-4/s1-kickstart2-options.html I have a webserver set up and I use that instead of NFS. I put the cd in, boot the system and at the linux prompt, I run something like: linux: linux ks=http://<kickstart server>/<config file for specific server> Then I walk away and wait for the heavy lifting to be done. With kickstart, you can script all the post-install configuration that you typically do -- deploying a system is now down to 15 minutes for me. I have stock configs for mail servers, name servers and webservers -- when I need a new one, it's as simple as provisioning the hardware (and even more simple when using virtualization). If you have a dhcp server, you can do it without a cd at all -- you can use the PXE boot images.
