Just something I want/need to do in the near future. The tearing down and restarting is also something I was planning on. Somewhat off-topic, but have you thought about using vmware, specifically vmplayer. There have been many a propellar-head that have reverse engineered the process of creating vmware templates. There are several places on the web that you can either create a blank template or download a preconfigured template. Then just install the OS. You can even link the virtual CD drive to an ISO image so that during the startup of the image, the VM is running from what it thinks is a live cd. This is how I am doing some of my practice build/tear down stuff here some of my links http://www.easyvmx.com/ http://www.easyvmx.com/tutorial.html http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/linux =85 eation.php http://www.virtualization.info/2005/12/ =85 mware.html http://www.hackaday.com/entry/1234000153064739/ http://sanbarrow.com/ http://www.brunofreitas.com/portal/viewtopic.php?t=3D41 Thanks again Don
