      Is there a way to redirect the x11 at boot so you can actually be on a remote machine selecting the install options? I thought I read that somewhere but I haven't been able to find info on it. I think I might be using the wrong search terms.

        You lack console access?

          @scottalanmiller Yes. I am offsite and I have an inexperienced tech there but I don't want them to setup the box. They won't know how to do the RAID and LVM. I could talk them through it but I really don't want to.

            And you don't have Out of Band access like iDrac?

                      Well, I walked the tech through it, twice as he messed something up the first time. Wasn't horrible, of course, his phone died halfway through and then he had to plug it in and was yelling from the other side of the server room.

                        That always would happen to me when talking to a datacenter.
