No magic, I have used both Chris Capuccio's FlashDist (for OpenBSD) and 
the plain Debian installer to get a base system installed to a CF card. 
  Then I configure the SSH daemon.  I do my management (for better or 
worse) via SSH, and use the console for those times when the network is 
inaccessible.
