It is my understanding this is not technically true.
If I had 100 identical machines, I would investigate the "make
release" path and roll my own. I believe this gives you the ability
to include a configuration file which auto-answers most if not all
of the sysinsall questions.
For a single machine, there is - or a least used to be - an
"express" install option. I've never used it, so I have no idea how
"express" it was.
