To make an installer with no prompts for Krang, we used the Expect
module. You'd have to write your installer in Perl, but it sounds like
you plan to do that anyway. You're welcome to take some code from
Krang::Platform (available by anonymous CVS from http://krang.sf.net/)
to get Expect working. It handles bootstrapping Expect, and can compile
both MakeMaker and Module::Build modules.
