Another (Probably Stupid) installer question.

What I want to create is a live, text mode, CD.
With an installer.
No GUI or X at all.
Is there a fairly 'doable' way to accomplish this?
Does a text based installer exist for live CD's?
This CD would have dhcp, dns, Samba and Apache running at boot.
Groupware. imap and an MTA also.
This way the CD could be tried out, and if it worked as desired, a shell command would be used to start the installer.
I am currently working on a project similar to this, but we require a GUI to get it done.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am having no luck figuring this out on my own.

TIA
