How do I do a bare-metal install (Debian) without a monitor+keyboard? (lemmy.world)

I don't have spare peripherals like a monitor and a keyboard. How do you suggest I do a bare-metal install of Debian on a computer (meant to be a server)?

Usually I want to see the BIOS settings at least once. So that's enough reason to carry a keyboard + monitor there.

Otherwise that network boot option with a TFTP server comes to my mind. But I have never tried it on a new, empty machine.
