g4u (ghost for unix) is a great little bootable image. UDPcast is
beautiful for blowing multiple machines out at the same time. Between
those two, I've never needed to use Symantec Ghost again.

A warning: the Ghost for Linux project appears, at least
superficially, to be an uncredited mangling of the g4u project. Also,
it doesn't add any functionality that I'm aware of.
