This is the same challenge I'm facing at the moment too.

It's an excellent process and I really like the idea, but
unfortunately the rsync at the end of the process doesn't work under
all conditions where proxies are involved..
At the moment, I'm relished to make a psuedo image (which uses wget
over a proxy), but it looks like I'm going to have to burn it, take
it home and do the rsync from there... and then reburn it to use
it.. :-(
Anyone with a better idea ?
Cheers,
Marcus
