Assuming you want to hear about the client setup at this point (since you seem to be starting with the server atm), there's a page on the wiki for rootless setups.

It's very simple with dnsmasq's pxeboot.

Re: Terminal server with archlinux

dhcpcd is the client.

dnsmasq is a pxe and dhcp server.

edit:

Normally i'd recommend using tftpd and dhpcd, but the tftpd package is broken for me.
