It doesn't look like the v120 has video, keyboard or mouse ports.

They probably intend for you to work with through the Lights Out Managment serial port.

The 1st CD will let you install in text moded.

Did you enable and configure networking?
Did you comment out the line in /etc/default/login that restricts root logins to the CONSOLE ?
