I have already provided as suggestion of using cobbler which we used in production environment for Install / Automation for Linux based distro's. This let's the users to select kind of distro they want to install and also managing them is much easier for the system admin as well as users. I had provided this information some time back on the same type of thread. Please let me know if you need any help on this.
