 Does Debian have tools to help automated installs?

 At present something like a pre-recorded list of answers you could feed
 debian-installer and a list of debs to install would be more than enough.

FAI, the Fully Automated installer does that, but it can be a bit
tricky to set up.

Cheers - I'd seen FAI but it seems like overkill for now, the other
options look good though.

Actually, the whole manual looks very handy, thanks!
