of course there is: switch to a console (CTRL-ALT-F3..F5), start
ssh-daemon (herd start ssh-daemon), change the root password, remotely
connect via ssh to root@<bare-metal-IP> and look for the command to
start the installer (ps auxww | grep installer)

in my case (using Guix 1.0.0 ISO on USB) is:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  /gnu/store/9alic3caqhay3h8mx4iihpmyj6ymqpcx-guile-2.2.4/bin/guile 
--no-auto-compile /gnu/store/sdxzl5gxphl4pwjqshq6a8w230asklym-installer-real
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

using that command now I can remotely run the installer via ssh

HTH! Gio'
