If I understand well[1], you will only get
the "framebuffer console": When connecting a screen, you will have the
usual console login prompt(getty) but cannot use Xorg and graphical
user interfaces. This is fine for a server.
You should therefor be able to use a screen and a keyboard to type
commands.

[1]I don't have the hardware and I cannot check the libreboot
documentation on that hardware right now, so I hope that if I'm
wrong, someone would correct me.
