Over the network installs is how we do some of our apps now, but we have to move away from it due to the bandwidth usage in locations. It has actually worked pretty good so far, my ris image (with all the app installs and updates in it) is only 3.4gb and when on the system it takes between 8gb and 10gb of disk space which is fine since we have 20+ gb drives in our systems. I was just trying to find a way to make the process take a little shorter, so far I have it between 55 minutes and 1hr and 12 minutes depending on symantec crappoint installing correctly. I have taken all my cmd scripts and started compiling them into a single autoit executable instead and that has helped the speed quite a bit.
