PXE Boot for multiple RasPis using a PXE server on Proxmox

[j.io]

Hi,

I plan a multiroom audio setup using multiple RasPis with HifiBerry shields. To avoid using SD cards and to save my configurations / backups via Proxmox (I run several VMs / containers anyway), I thought I could setup a PXE server on Proxmox to boot the Pi's via network. If a Pi dies I just replace it, hook it up and am live again. All backups are then handled by Proxmox. So far so good ...

Does this make sense at all? If yes, what would be the best way to achieve something like that?

Yes.

Create an LX(C) container or a VM with a guest OS of your liking and follow the guides on the internet.
