nfsroot boot problems

It couldn't mount your client to FAI -server, i think that you haven't
chosen the NFS root option in kernel configuration. Check it as Y
(build into kernel).

If you build config kernel from scratch without FAI template
configuration, you might not see that option. Try to use the FAI
template config. There're config file for kernel 2.6.8 , 2.6.14 on FAI
download repository.
