Nice one Fletch.

Am grabbing it to test now, and will seed (not that I've got a very fast

I'm sure you can get the image size down. For example, have you thought
about doing a kickstart install from a remote location (including the
CentOS updates repo mirrors, RPMForge, etc.)? You should be able to
install everything first time, rather than updating after first boot.
