Idea #11260: Create customised install scripts easily, to automate parts of the install

If admins could store answers for selected sections of an ubuntu install on a USB drive (and automatically perform actions afterwards), they could easily mostly automate the installation on a wide number of computers.

For instance, admins might save everything (including guided harddisk partitioning) during installation, except:
- TCP/IP settings (they don't want DHCP)

And they may also choose to automatically install openSSH after install via the USB script, and enable vnc

This would make mass deployment a lot easier for admins, and would be a step towards self-deploying ubuntu networks which anyone can set up
