One idea if PXE doesn't work, or you don't have PXE, and you still want a silent machine, would be to boot from flash (or even floppy). I have a CompactFlash to IDE adapter, that can be used to load a kernel, and the rest could be loaded from network. If the motherboard supports booting from a USB drive, this would do the same thing. You could even load the kernel from a floppy, although when I used to do this the same floppy sitting in the same drive for months on end would need to be replaced once or twice a year. Not exactly diskless in that case, but other than 30 seconds at boot, there is no drive noise.
Or, throw in a DVD drive and boot from CD/DVD, and you can play DVD's with the frontend, also.
