Debian gives you all the ingredients - you will have to do your own cooking. > Could be something to ask for in debian community? All installation media have the ability to run the installer over an ssh link using the network-console udeb. Obtain it when d-i gets to the "Load installer components from an installer ISO". Stop when you have done "Continue installation remotely using SSH". I imagine you will have to preseed all the steps up to that one because you do not have a working graphics card. Then (from the client) connect with 'ssh installer@IP (preseed IP and password) and start the installer. -- Brian.
