Installation of fedora 10 from install DVD, but with no monitor

I have an oldish box running fedora 2. I want to do a fresh install with fedora 10, but I do not have a screen/monitor for it (all my other machines are laptops).

"It might just about be possible to do a terminal install using a null modem cable to one of your laptops.
But you are going to have to set the boot order in the bios etc, check POST errors so I would just borrow/buy a cheap crt.

Net install usually just means pulling the files over the net - useful if the machine doesn't have a cdrom, not controlling the install over the net."
