Ghost doesn't play well with ext3 (i've heard they've fixed this now) and
doesn't work with grub.  we're using a modified gentoo livecd (modified
ramdisk and added soem files to the iso9660) to write the partition table
and a few partition images and mkfs on the big ones and mkswap, etc.

considering we've built over 200 in two days, this would seem fairly
obvious... :P
