Works well for us, assuming the same hardware.  We generally restore all of the 
data on all the drives, then restore the sysobj, then reboot.  Make sure that 
you're installing Windows into the same directory that you're restoring to, and 
that the computername is identical.  Otherwise you'll run into NTFS permissions 
issues.  You might also get some popups from Windows File Protection when you 
overlay the system files; just cancel past these.

was wondering if there are any gotchas...

Here is the steps I will be taking

1. reinstall windows (setup the network driver and IP address etc.)
2. put in the service pack
3. install tsm client
4. restore c:\
5. before reboot, restore system objects
6. reboot and restore the rest of the drives

missed anything?
Thanks for your input
