I think, with some limitations a suse vserver can also be created from an ftp archive. the limitation is that I didn't find a bootstrap for suse (I didn't deal much with bootstraps so far) so it means there have to be a few files copied into the vserver dir.
my suse installation scripts also need to install the packages twice, since aaa_base and ncurses are not installed on the first run (don't ask me why). this produces more traffic than desired.

yeah right. below this error message there's the correct output of the filesizes.
