how do you mean? You wipe the MBR and you want it to install automatically?
Have you looked into PXE? (assuming your hardware supports this).
the only other way that i can think of is (as Rick says) a kickstart install, 
for which you will need a CD or floppy as a boot medium, although you can 
customise this to automatically install from the network. (more easily done 
on a floppy than a CD, but possible on both)

have you set up a network install server?
