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

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)?

    Do you have a second computer running Linux? If you do install virtual manager and then pass though the disk. (LUN passthough)

    Next boot the VM with the Debian installer and install. Finally shutdown the VM and plug it into the physical device.
