Hello Sam,
(some postings above, you mentioned having but 2 GB RAM.)
It is said that, for a 64bit system, one should have at
least 4 GB RAM installed.
I don't agree. I have 3GB RAM, for which 512MB is taken by video card,
leaving me with 2.5GB RAM,

Good advice :)
For now, stick with the defaults because that's what most people will be

Ok. Is the idea to image all the machines identically and then
configure them automatically via dhcp? If so why do they need locally
