I have done this[0] to varying extents for different distros, though I've been distrohopping a lot lately and the scripts haven't quite caught up. I have a similar set of scripts used to provision workstations and servers in my lab.

I find that having a fully automated setup makes tech problems much less stressful. If something breaks, I can just re-install the system from scratch and be up and running again in an hour or two. It also makes changing hard drives or setting up a new machines very straightforward.
