Why don't you remove the HD, transfer the HD to a machine with keyboard and monitor, and then after installation, put the HD back into the original keyboardless machine? While installing, make sure that you enable networking and assign the proper IP address, install ssh, etc. This way, when you transfer the HD to the original machine, it is network-ready.
