I maintain several servers in remote locations and rather than drive whenever there is an update, I would prefer to just simply send the offices a bootable CD with the new software. So, all they would have to do is restart the server with the new CD and the software/operating system/whatever is updated. On the CD I can see having the kernel, /sbin and /bin directories, with the remainder of the directories (i.e. /var, /etc, etc.) remaining on the hard drive. I'd appreciate any direction anyone can give me regarding this. Thanks in advance for your assistance.
