Yes. Take a look at OpenSuse's tool, too.

JeOS continues ripening, and Canonical is doing a good job of
facilitating Amazon integration/migration as well.

You might appreciate ClearOS. It's the evolution of ClarkConnect, is
CentOS based, and has our friend John Terpstra on the team. He was
behind their PDC improvements the last few years.

Ubuntu has an appliance package, ebox, with a good admin panel that
you might like more than dealing with the drama of your old biases.

There's more out there, but this is a sampling.
