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.
