    This isn't a chicken/egg dilemma (almost nothing is), all you need to do
    is install it from a cd or something, if you can't do that then just
    install from the net, disconnect, set it up, and reconnect. Or if you
    have the resources (unlikely), it's easier to set up all computers on a
    dmz (if you don't know what that is, ignore this sentence) and then
    transfer them to wherever they're needed.
