Sysinstall can easily be run remotely; it has a "post install"
"configure" option that is used for situation such as this.
IIRC, the option you'll want is "select additional distribution
sets".

Simply "shell in" with ssh from your remote computer, su
to root, and run sysinstall at your shell prompt.

No problem --- we mostly remember when we were "all thumbs",
too.
