Blind install ?

[sharris]

Hello Everybody,

I have an hp pavilion zv5000 that has a burn-out integrated video card so I can't see a thing. Right now it has Windows XP installed on it and it's not worth paying to get it fix, so I thinking of using it as a pf machine on my LAN. My question is, is it possible to wipe the drive than install FreeBSD on it, than connect to it visa my LAN so I can work with it though its terminal from another machine? I'm sure it's possible but I never done anything like it before and it would be the best thing I'll learn since learning how to set-up and work with packet filter itself.

I'm not sure where I should have post this so if it must be relocated it's fine by me.

Thanks in advance for any help.

What a coincident, I just read the last half of an possible answer just below, right here
