Put the server HD as slave into the computer with the image and restore the image.
 
If this is unfeasable, get dos drivers for the servers nic, and use the ghost network boot disk utility to make a boot disk.

I used ghost to make 2 network boot disks. one for a system with the image, the other for the system to load. I think the only differance in the disks was the ip, but I'm not sure if there was anything else. You can edit the files to make the ip and mask for your network. Another option is direct cable connection. Davros mentioned the easiest solution though, try that first.

Ghost allows you to make a USB boot disk. If both machines have USB, boot each one up with it's own disk and transfer the image through USB.
