Why not forget the CD images and download the helium tree (1.1GB)? 
Then you can install using a floppy made from /images/hd.img (I use
that method) and I expect you should be able to install across a
network using a floppy made from /images/network.img (but I have
never tried it).

You should also be aware of the auto-install feature for installing
the same config across multiple machines on a network.
