If you use the key choice at the boot menu of the installer to edit 
options and add ' vnc' to the boot command line, then during the initial 
installation configuration screens pick a viable network configuration 
for your situation.  You will later be informed of the ip address and 
screen to connect to the computer with vncviewer from another computer.  
This is a good alternative to perform a graphic installation if you have 
a local network to connect to and another computer available on that 
network.
