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.

        Connect it to your PC or laptop and do a netinstall. Configure SSHD and a static ip. Plugin the disk to your server and then connect via ssh to admin it.

        You could also set your laptop or PC to boot from the attached disk in the bios to test the services you want to start are starting
