My preference for quick imaging is Acronis True Image Server. It images disks or partitions and compreses the image by up to 70% and is fast. You are right about vmWare. It is THE most usefull tool for lab work I've found. When you are through trashing a virtual OS, just delete it and copy over the original folder that you initially backed up and you're good to go again. With a dual Opteron and 8gb RAM and SuSE 9.1 as a base secure OS, our new lab will easily support a virtual 240 subnet. As soon as as their 4.5.2 version comes out supporting 64-bit SuSE that is.
