If you include iHook with your package, you can push a script through it and use iHook to display your gui messages with progress bar etc. That is how I do my first loginhook after imaging to let the user know what is going on. Ihook is not big, and free to use.

If you really want, you could create a GUI application to show
progress. Yes, that's a lot of work.
