remote-access

Sitting in front of me is an HP DL 380 Generation 4 with no monitor. I'd like to install an OS on the thing but for reasons obvious, I can't. I got excited when I found the ILO port on the back but unless you have a subscription it has limited functionality. I was thinking maybe there was some software out there that booted into some kind of remote access server?

When I tested it with a monitor (A friends) I set the BIOS to boot from USB so anything I can load onto a stick should boot.

Ideas? Hacks?
