with chef-client, we can install on a unix platform by running this:
curl -L https://www.opscode.com/chef/install.sh | bash

is there an analogue for chef-server?

No. Since the server install is usually less frequent, we chose not to have an installer script to maintain. Also, we wanted to funnel new users through the https://www.opscode.com/chef/install page so we can link to docs, troubleshooting tips, etc. If you're standing up a lot of Chef servers, you can either use the Omnitruck GET API or distribute the server package via scp/repo/etc.
