I forgot the biggest quirk: (and it might be the showstopper)

 - Parted has some issues with existing partitions.
   As a workaround i zero out the partitions with 
  "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda" and use control-C after some seconds.
   ..Very ugly, but the machines dont pile up in my office anymore :)

Thanks to  Tobias Richter, I have uploaded what I have now to:
http://imi.st/patched_unattended_ISO-CVS-2007-04-10-ftp-upload.tar.gz

There is a minimal README inside the .tar.gz
Please post youre workarounds, problems questions here so we all can share the 
knowledge :)
