MANGO is a live CD/USB pendrive to do a massive clone of disk or partition over the network. You can clone easily a lot of computers at the same time.

Command line script to flash SD card images of any kind. Note that for some devices (e.g. Raspberry Pi), at the end of the flashing process the tool tries to customize the SD card e.g. it configures a hostname or WiFi. And with a cloud-init enabled image you can do much more like adding users, SSH keys etc.
