Since Revisor is all about use-cases like this, it has a --install-nogr 
command line option, which is supposed to let anaconda build it's images 
without graphical installer and/or vnc capabilities. For the specific 
"minimal installer images" use-case Revisor also ships the feature Jesse 
Keating mentioned:

However, I recently tested composing this "no graphical" installer and 
it didn't work. I'll try again and let you know what happens exactly, as 
I don't remember what went wrong anymore.
