we stole parts of the FAI schema but we use our own live chroot
environment which is NFS exported.
We created a minimal system using debootstrap - I think there is an
equivalent in CentOS. We installed everything inside the image which is
needed.

Have you ever considered Perceus (Caos has it baked in) from
infiscale? It's the simplest answer I've found to this question and
scales very well. You can use your favorite distro and tools and it
puts it wraps up the minimum required pieces to load the machine with
