Not sure what you mean by "how far." It will talk through the entire installation, certainly. Can you then use a telnet connection to your linux system for daily use? Of course. However, you will have some issues finishing the installation. Telnet is not enabled by default. You can certainly enable it, so that it's available on every boot, but you'll have to configure that from a LInux console, and for security reasons, you should restrict it to internal lan use only--to a non routable ip, for instance.
