We don't do things easy in Linux. Any attempts
to do so will result in immediate retribution from
the System Lords.

To automate ghosting in Linux, try making a shell script
that runs dd based on entries read in from a table
(call it something like ghost.conf). Then take that script and
a boot floppy and make an entry in your boot floppy's boot process
to call your ghosting script on boot. Tada, instant automated ghosting 
on a disk. It also has the added bonus of being totally configurable
by editing the ghost.conf file in any text editor.
