How can I install Linux Debian on PC having only Ethernet and no monitor and i/o devices on that PC so after that I can communicate with that PC only through SSH?
UPD: also I wanted to do this from Windows, so it's seems that for PXE I gonna use TFTP32 (http://tftpd32.jounin.net)

To install debian trought ethernet you need to set up a TFTP and a DHCP server which will serve the installation media to machines on your local network. Refer to the chapter Preparing Files for TFTP Net Booting from here: 4.5. Preparing Files for TFTP Net Booting

Yeah, I get that for PXE I need this two servers. But most important thing for me is auto-install or installation controlled via SSH. – fut33v – 2016-08-01T05:32:38.167
this does not even "remotely" answer the question ... – Pat – 2016-08-04T14:42:38.013

Ok I found corresponding software called FAI, will see

FAI is a 1GB distro that doesn't not solve your headless needs neither does TFTPD32. – Pat – 2016-08-05T08:02:08.557
