Abstract:

Diskless Remote Boot in Linux (DRBL) provides a diskless or systemless
environment for client machines. DRBL uses distributed hardware
resources and makes it possible for clients to fully access local
hardware. It also includes Clonezilla, a partitioning and disk cloning
utility.

FOG is a free open-source cloning/imaging solution/rescue suite. An
alternate solution used to image Windows XP, Vista PCs using PXE,
PartImage, and a Web GUI to tie it together. Includes features like
memory and disk test, disk wipe and AV scan.
