Most systemimager disk captures set the final partition on the disk as "grow-able" so yes it can indeed expand to fill the drive. Most of the systemimager rpms are noarch so they should work on your x86_64 system. Just make sure you install the systemimager-x86_64initrd_template-4.1.6-1.noarch.rpm on the client systems you are going to capture and the systemimager-x86_64boot-standard-4.1.6-1.noarch.rpm on the image server.
