I just overlooked something. You boot a kernel that tries to mount the
root file system via NFS (Root-NFS). That's not your new kernel,
that's the fai install kernel. Check pxelinux config and watch the
PXE/DHCP messages which kernel get loaded. Or try to cancel PXE boot
by pressing ESC during the boot process. Or do you install the fai
install kernel for your new system? You can't do this.
