I've got about a dozeen machines I need to build with STABLE. The machiens
will be alike except fo things like name and IP address.

I've been building these thigns one at a time doing the following.

Bott from install disks
install minimum set
install cvsup
cvsup
make world
install varios ports
install local custom software.

This atkes about a day.

There must be a better way to do this.

What have others been doing?
