Here you can find some notes about installing VMware vCenter Appliance from command line directly form ESXi using OVF Tool.

Install the OVF tools first. Details can be found here: http://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2012/05/how-to-deploy-ovfova-in-esxi-shell.html.

Provision VMware vCenter Server 5.x Appliance using OVFtool directly to ESXi and then configure it via SSH

Then you can automatically register the ESXi servers to the vCenter using "joinvCenter.py".
