Creating a Fully Automated Restore

I used Ghost in the past and what I loved about it is that you can boot from a CD or USB flash disk using basic DOS boot up files and have an autoexec.bat file configured to run Ghost.exe with command line parameters to automatically restore an image that is local in the USB disk or CD/DVD. The bootable disk is very easy to create and the command line parameters is really just one line.

What I've noticed with Acronis, however, is that it restores images faster when the image is 10GB and higher. Ghost tends to run a minute or two slower. However, with Acronis, I have to go through the GUI and perform bunch of clicks to start the restore. So even if Acronis runs faster, the time it takes for the application to load and the selection of the image and additional confirmation clicks ultimately makes the process equally fast.

So, basically, I want to create a USB boot disk that will automatically run Acronis and perform the restore--No clicking, no typing, nothing. Just insert the USB disk and have the PC boot from it and that's it.

I've gotten as far as creating a bootable USB disk that will automatically run Acronis. However, i don't want to go through the GUI process. I want it to just automatically run an Acronis .exe application with command line parameters that will perform the restore.

Is that even possible? I've done my due diligence in finding the answer myself but either I'm not Googling my keywords correctly or no one has really done it.
