It sounds like from the description there is no way to do windows diskless without emulating a disk.
I am not sure I understand what you mean. Isn't that what iSCSI is about: everything above that thinks there is a local SCSI disk...
I have serious issues with iSCSI because the only implementation I have seen was tremendously complex and nasty looking. Which is a real downside when compared to something simple like nbd.
Well, I don't know what implementations you have seen. There are undoubtedly some ugly ones. That's an implementation issue, though: the basic idea looks quite clean to me. Not that there are no issues...
How well does iBOOT work on the linux side.
Better ;-)
If you have an iSCSI driver for Linux.
We do.
