Before you do that figure out how to make an unattended install script

Lost me here. Do you mean something other than the deb package? Cuz
what I'm talking about here is running the deb package in a vm,

I'm figuring a Sun VirtualBox image would be best for that.

that down? Or can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thanks.
