Partition disk into two, the second FAT32.

Install DOS 7 on second.

Hide this partition from Windows Explorer.

Image the system to the second partition with any suitable product (which
must support scripted restore)

Place an autoexec.bat on P2 which will execute this process.

To initiate a restore, programmatically replace the boot.ini on the main
partition with one which boots from Partition 2's dos bootsector as the
default choice, and force a reboot.
