fai 3.2~beta3 testing troubles

[Henning Sprang]

Hi,
I am trying to a network install in a Xen DomU.
( as of differences betwenn real hardware: I think I did everything 
necessary to compensate the differences to real hardware).

Server and client are etch, fai installation is completely default apart 
from a local mirror used to build the nfsroot. Admittedly my first fai3 
on an etch server network installation - when using dirinstall a while 
ago, I had no troubles, and fai-cd's went fine yesterday with beta2.
Now I'm using fai 3.2 beta3. fai-setup and nfs reload have been done 
many times.

Using a standard debian kernel with initrd instead of fai-kernels - 
which works very well in a similar setup with a sarge fai server and 
nfsroot, even to install an etch client from there.

the full log is at http://paste.debian.net/30456

The first error seems to be "mkdir: cannot create directory 
`/var/run/network': Read-only file system"

sounds like something wrong with the ramdisk or stuff... but no idea 
what could be wrong after looking for a long time, rebuilding nfsroot 
many times...
