Added a unattended installer. Fixed list_profiles() to not include .py ending in the profile name, it's already in the ['path'] defintion. Renamed desktop.py to awesome.py as it more accurately describes what's being installed. desktop should be reserved to a default desktop environment that's more new-user-friendly.
