What does "HTML remote installation method" mean? That may be a virtlib configuration limitation with the anaconda installer's expectations: If so, can you use a CD or DVD installation image instead? Or simply send a pre-built SL 7.2 operating system imge, instead?

There is no dhcp available in that environment (Hetzner root server in Germany).
