install an OS manually, then use the disk as template for new
installations. i.e. new installation is just copying the old disk.
Some preparation for the template is necessary though. For example,
with RHEL5 you need to at least:
- edit network config so it use DHCP or disabled, to avoid IP address conflict
- remove /etc/ssh/*key*, so each domU has its own unique ssh server keys.
