After booting the ISO via IPMI, you can spawn a VNC server and
complete graphical installation that way:

OVH uses iPXE so you can upload a script that points to any HTTPS
server, even a public one like https://netboot.xyz/  But PXE doesn't
provide any kind of graphical access at all, unless you use IPMI,
which brings you back to square one anyway.  So this is a lot more
work unless you plan to install a lot of Fedora servers, in which case
you also want to use kickstart and not a graphical install. ;-)
