Just as a point of Interest, you are referring the Norton Ghost I would 
assume? I used Norton Ghost in the past, but then it failed to support the 
LVM images unless one did a sector image, so I switched to G4U, and then 
to G4L. I have seens down releases 0.15 thru 0.26 of G4L. It uses syslinux 
to boot from the CD, and some uses have modified this to run from flash 
devices and PXE. I haven't setup a PXE setup myself.

G4L doesn't to the on the fly resizing, but it does other things that ghost 
doesn't.
