As Thomas point me out, this issuse has to do with the devfs.

I got devfs mounted on the FAI client, but it seems to be badly
configured.
So I modified /boot/fai/pxelinux.cfg/default (I'm bootin using PXE/DHCP)
this way:

label fai-install
kernel installkernel
# if you have a problem add next line
append auto rw root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=/usr/lib/fai/nfsroot
nfsaddrs=kernel ip=255.255.255.255:autoconf devfs=nomount
                                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And the problem's gone.

Thank you very much to you all guys.
Cheers.
