You can easily install remotely if you can get a serial console.
I did a remote install via a VNC session to a Windows box running the included
hyperterminal.  The local person only had to interrupt the boot and type
"consdev com0" and I had control. :)

Now if you're trying to do a complete install with zero assistance from
some remote person you will have more work to do. :)
