Mondo is also pretty good with creating Rescue CD/DVDs that people
expect to come with new systems.  I've used it for this purpose a couple
of times:  install a new Ubuntu system using OEM install mode (so that
the user gets to pick their user name and all that jazz, and you can
install all the software that they need) and then use Mondo to create a
set of disks so that if they ever bork their system, they can restore it
by simply inserting CDs and waiting.  Very nice package.
