I managed to start a VNC Server very early in the setup process.
It starts and opens port 5900. I can connect from another machine, but unfortunately
i don't see the remote desktop. I just get a gray desktop.
Maybe because the installer runs in text mode on a tty and not in a X environment ?

Any ideas ?
