Almost all filesystems commonly used on linux have a tool for resizing, at least 
growing (to my knowledge only ext2 and ReiserFS can be shrunk).  This could be 
done after an initial image is written.

I guess I'm used to using Ghost to install on systems with completely identical 
hardware.  It's just been my experience that windows doesn't like getting put on 
a completely different system than it was installed on.  I guess maybe MS has 
addressed this, but I know Windows98 thinks it just had a brain transplant and 
goes completely nuts, often breaking itself in the frenzy of trying to 
"reinstall" all it's drivers.
