You can mount an ISO image through the BMC and boot the server from there. A serial port would be too slow. The management ethernet is supposed to be on a separate network not exposed on the same network as the rest.
I mean, you can typically do a TFTP boot on the systems that I've seen that have serial-capable BIOS setups.
