Automating dpkg-reconfigure answers via a shell script

[VALETTE Eric]

I'm currently working on automated disk installation for one of our 
internal project. I already managed to make all disk partitioning. file 
system creation and minimal debian system installation. I also managed 
to make apt use a set of packages pre-installed on the disk with well 
known versions (not direct downlaod from a debian mirror).

I use
1) dpkg --set-selection < myPackage file
then
2) dselect install
unfortunately, I then need to answer all configuration items and found 
no way to answer all the question automatically.

So my questions are :
A) Is there a better command than "dselect install" to start 
installation of pacakges. At leat one where I could specify to use all 
the defaults value for package first installation? (a la apt-get 
--assume-yes)

B) If this is feasible, I will then need to use dpkg-reconfigure to 
reconfigure packages where I do not want default values.

Unfortunately
(prompt) dpkg-reconfigure pakage <<EOF
answer1
answer2
answer3
EOF
does not work.
Any hint to make this?
Thanks for any help
