This has been asked before but I haven't seen any answers in the
archives or clear documentation on the matter. 

Is there a way to create a log file during the installation and save it
to a specific directory/location of my choosing? 
We'd like to be able to do post-mortem on what our testers/users are
doing. 
Also, if that's possible is it also possible to add our own debug
statements to the log? 

For instance:
Beginning install
Starting Pack X
Installing somethingOrOther.jar to C:\Program
Files\oh_my_what_the_heck_was_the_user_thinking\
Finished Pack X
Finished Install with errors:
Blah blah blah

We'd at least like to know what the user chose during the install
process. Another very nice feature for the log file would be hardware
info about the user..... 
Anything like that out there?

Thanks
James Oltmans
