[IDV #DFB-710464]: IDV Unattended installation problem



Elie,

We can confirm this problem, and we are working on a solution. Hopefully, we 
will have something soon.

> "Unattended installations
> The installers can be run in a quiet, unattended mode which does not show the 
> installation screens nor require input from the user. In this mode, the 
> default settings are selected. The user can only override the installation 
> directory in this mode. To run the installer in an unattended mode, pass the 
> "-q" parameter to the installer. For example, to run the following:
> 
> sh idv_2_8_linux-i386_installer.sh -q"
