Do an install over the network. Share out the i386 folder from the CD. Connect using an MS-DOS or Win 95/98 boot disk. Run the winnt.exe program (winnt32.exe for updates) from there and you will be set. To create answer files for the installations use setup manager wizard which is available from the support tools or from the cd. Not sure of a web site that offers the steps, but many books do a good job of covering the topic. Ghost certainly would work as well; I have used to install pro and have had no problems with it. Good luck.
