I'm doing the same what is done with puppet here, with FAI 
(http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/ and http://faiwiki.debian.net). I'll 
post a short howto tomorrow.

And with FAI I would use a cfengine script for such "edits", and I think you 
can use cfengine with puppet, too.

FAI used to be a debian only installer, but since some time (years..) it's 
also possible to update and manage running systems with it, also rpm based 
systems. (It doesn't support installations of rpm based systems yet, mostly 
because there seems to be no aquivalent to debootstrap.)


regards,
