Yes, TFTP for the boot rom, and then NFS for the root fs.

I don't use docker or any other kind of container system because it's so easy to just reboot a Pi into a new OS on demand. Everything runs natively.

That's what we did when developing our original Embedded Linux stuff. Once you get it working it's really nice. You have your standard tools, version control, etc running locally on your system.
