As I mentioned before I already committed an initial script to svn. http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/bin/install_otb.sh
Manuel, if you sign up or have an osgeo account, let us know your username and we'll get you access to the svn. Things the script needs: Menu items (I suggest a menu item with a subfolder for all the GUI tools to be launched from the sub-menu) A 2nd script for grabbing your dataset (I suggest you collaborate with Massimo on a small high res imagery example) Refinement to drop extra packages we don't need. etc...
