When I used to use DriveImage Professional, the _pain_ of the ordeal
was creating that Microsoft [DOS] Network Client [3.0] setup for all
the new NICs that came out.  I understand Symmantec Ghost also uses
MSNC 3.0?

With Linux, I have no such issues.  I just use a recent RedHat
release's "bootnet" disk.
