I've partimage on netbooted thin clients to do imaging for windowsxp partitions via ssh and nfs. restored 7 machines in under an hour. hopefully partimage loses the stupid ntfs/experimental warning so it can be completely unattented.
parted did my ntfs resizing. qt_parted will let you do it by manually w/ a gui.

I spoke with Scott last week about donating a free copy of Ghost (9.0) to HOSEF and have ordered it through my corporation (Symantec). I should be able to deliver it next week.
