I'm assuming you have this problem because you have a large amount of machines that you need to install with certain regularity. In this case I would really suggest PXE, it is extremely configurable and can accomplish what you want. Cobbler is also a good alternative (I've been told, haven't actually used it).
Yup. Cobbler is the way to go.
I think the boot image approach, though possible, is too much work.
Yes, probably.I thought of setting up a PXE+TFTP-server and the rest of the infrastructure by hand, but after I found cobbler, I never looked back. In fact, it's the tool I have been looking for for years (OK, I'm actually looking for something that can provision Linux, Windows, FreeBSD and Solaris - but cobbler is a good start ;-))) )
