Could you download the USB image http://webconverger.org/usb/ and dd that onto your hard drive, the same way you would for a USB stick? I don't know how this would affect your ability to set things read-only, but I would have though a change to /etc/fstab should be sufficient to lock the system down?
No idea, but I can give that a try - thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it in a VMWare VM first and see what happens.
Should I be dd'ing it direct to the drive (ie to /dev/hda) or to a partition (/dev/hda1)? Presumably the latter if I want to also have a swap partition, in which case I'll need to separately install grub?
