While I can probably kludge a hdd that has a cd image on it, my problem of no kb or display remains.
With the HD in a machine that does have a keyboard and display, install a minimal installation -- just enough to boot to runlevel 3 and access the network. If you have dhcp available, that would probably make things easier. Once you have a working installation on the HD, move the HD to the other machine, let it boot and then ssh in to a terminal session. From there you should be able to optimize the installation to suit your needs, using network-aware tools (up2date/yum/apt/whatever) to install new packages as required.
