[SOLVED] Converting Windows node cluster to Linux Cent0S 5.5 cluster do I kickstart or image ?

I need to convert 32 Window cluster nodes to Linux cluster nodes, I already have 32 Linux cluster nodes working, which would give me a 64 node cluster. Do I image the current Linux nodes, or build/configure kickstart/PXE boot the remaining nodes ?

as a one off thing it probably doesn't matter. ideally I would say kickstart them, and keep them managed going forwards using puppet. You might to look at foreman which provides an interface to assist in both of these areas.
