Hi Thomas:

To my knowledge, nobody has created an ISO installer for Evergreen. It
would certainly be possible. The topic has come up in the past, but
nobody has stepped forward to do this.

Note that with the move to autoconf/automake in the upcoming OpenSRF
1.0 and Evergreen 1.4 release would-be packagers will be in a better
position to create installable packages (.debs for Debian and Ubuntu,
for example).
