Installation profiles
Installation profiles are a feature in Drupal core that was added in the 5.x series. The Drupal installer allows you to specify an installation profile which defines which modules should be enabled, and can customize the new installation after they have been installed. This will allow customized "distributions" that enable and configure a set of modules that work together for a specific kind of site (Drupal for bloggers, Drupal for musicians, Drupal for developers, and so on).
UberDrupal
UberDrupal is an installation profile designed to help you get a Drupal site running an Ubercart store up as quickly as possible. This installation profile will install the core Ubercart modules automatically, allow you to pre-configure some basic store information, and supports the automatic support and configuration of module packages for features like out of the box product image and shipping support.

Hostmaster
The hostmaster profile is a component of the Aegir hosting system.
Ægir is a new set of contributed modules for Drupal that aims to solve the problem of managing a large number of Drupal sites. It does this by providing you with a simple Drupal based hosting front end for your entire network of sites. To deploy a new site you simply have to create a new Site node. To backup or upgrade sites, you simply manage your site nodes as you would any other node.
The hostmaster profile ties together the functionality of the hosting front end and provisioning back end into a complete package. It handles initialization and auto-detection of your initial configuration settings, and directs you to the friendly installation wizard. To start using the Aegir system, you will install a new site using the hostmaster profile, which you will then use to manage all of the sites you host.
For more information on the system, and the other components, please take a look at the Aegir overview wiki page
