Sure. If you know what you're doing you can figure a way to do this with
little local system interaction. Still, it's probably easier to just
provide a CD with a custom install. There's stuff in the email archives
that talks about creating custom server that you can apply to the custom
CD/install. Essentially, you just cobble up the packages you want and add
them all to the base installation package. Then just run setup.
