Great idea!

I didn't know I could it, it worked greatly. The only manual thing now 
is related to grub, but I guess I will not have a solution for that.

Depending on the disk configuration of the target machine, grub gets the 
menu.lst from the wrong disk, or it just don't get the menu.lst file 
automatically, so I have to manually load the menu:

root(hd0,0)
configfile /grub/menu.lst

Could not find a way to solve this, but I guess I can live with this 
problem.

Thanks,
Rodrigo
