1. No.  Nothing to do with active directory unless yoiu choose to communicate with one later.
2. Have a working OS.
2a. For initial new server on new domain run setup.
2b. For new server on existing domain, run setup.

Setup will walk through initial setup but there are lots of things you choose at the point of setting up your first server which should be well planned like the certifier names you are going to use, domain name, server names etc. so if you aren't familiar with domino I suggest you get someone who is to help with the initial setup.
