Restore from network image?

I've got a network image of my son's laptop on a NAS drive, IanLaptop.sparseimage and his hard drive just packed up.

[Hooray for SuperDuper!!!!]

What's my best bet for putting his machine back together once I get a new drive?

Install OSX, install SuperDuper, and restore from the network image?

Put the new drive into an external housing and <something>?

I found "boot from OSX CD-Rom, open SparseImage, restore" on pp27-28 of the SuperSuper pdf manual, but that also requires copying the sparseimage to a firewire or USB drive, yes? Can the CD-Rom see network drives?

Thanks!
