It will not work because miner software/AMD-SDK/AMD Drivers need Xserver.
You can start with Ubuntu Server as long as you have an ethernet connection and installing a desktop, the lightest of the Desktops is Lubuntu.

To install a basic Lubuntu desktop on Ubuntu Server:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo apt-get install lubuntu-core

With this you get a no-frills desktop with no extra software.
