I don't think you'll ever be able to find a global agreement on it.
But
A) start by opening feature request against the installer - in this case
TEIID or Data Virtualisation product.
B) if the installer is a izpack based installer there might be ways to
do it already:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/IZPACK/Unattended+Installations
Try with java -DINSTALL_PATH=/opt/myplace -jar myinstaller.jar to
see if that works ?
Unfortunately it doesn't work.
For JBDS installer jar, running
java -jar installer.jar -options-template myinstaller.properties
generates the property file, but it's empty.
For DV, running the same command, the resulting property file includes
"INSTALL_PATH=" which should indicate that you can set this property as Max
suggested.
But running the installer with
java -DINSTALL_PATH=/Users/rasp/jbossqa/runtimes/jboss-eap-6.3.0 -jar
jboss-dv-installer-6.1.0.redhat-3.jar
it will still offer this as the default path:
/Users/rasp/DV-6.1.0/jboss-eap-6.3
So no luck here.
