    What would you do ?  Non interactive installation or
    debugging installation ?

I mean, I want to perform an interactive installation for a new piece of hardware, once. Then, I want to replicate that installation on additional instances of that hardware. If `bsdinstall' generates an installation script, then I could just use that.

Thanks,

Ravi (rpokala@)
