One example of prior art that may be worth looking at is Ubuntu's oem-config, part of the 'ubiquity' source package: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/ubiquity/ http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/ubiquity/trunk This has both graphical and console front-ends for use in configuring a system at first boot of a preinstalled image.
