Custom RAM boot PXE Linux
At my company, we've built what you describe. We run a few hundred clients, which boot from the network and run in RAM only. We've opensourced a part of our setup: https://github.com/DigitecGalaxus/netbooting-thinclients. The creation of a squashfs is based on an abstraction with Docker, we start with a plain ubuntu Docker image, unminimize it, customize it and at the end basically create a squashfs with a `docker cp`.
