What is the exact need? In what sense do you need the installation to be automatic? Are the computers (hardware) you want to install on identical? Do you want exactly the same things on all computers?
Do you want the partitioning to be done automatically? Are these Linux-only computers?
Does it need to be user-friendly, or is this all about saving time and effort?
For example, can you do the partitioning manually, and then go on from there without human intervention? Because if so, you can install one computer exactly like you want them all to be, and then simply tar the entire filesystem into a single CD file.
In this case, installation will be: 1. Set up partitions and make filesystems. 2. Mount filesystems and untar some file. 3. chroot to the new systems and install lilo/grub.
