Mandrake's automated install does all that, if you remembered to do it in the
installation stage. OTOH, the new DrakConf has a utility to generate the
autoinstall floppy on a live system. I'm not sure if it takes the current
snapshot of the package installed and how it handles packages not from the
distribution discs. I sure haven't tried it, but it may be worth looking into
(if you operate a Mandrake, that is)
