Hi,
edit /etc/fai/menu.lst
.

title Fully Automatic Installation - dhcp, nfsroot
kernel /boot/vmlinuz ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=192.168.1.2:/srv/fai/nfsroot boot=live
FAI_FLAGS="verbose,sshd,createvt" FAI_ACTION=install
initrd /boot/initrd.img

title Fully Automatic Installation - static, nfsroot
kernel /boot/vmlinuz ip=192.168.1.17:192.168.1.2:192.168.1.1::::
root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.2:/srv/fai/nfsroot boot=live
FAI_FLAGS="verbose,sshd,createvt" FAI_ACTION=install
initrd /boot/initrd.img
.

I don have a local mirror so I just create an empty dir.
# mkdir /root/mirror
# fai-cd -f -m /root/mirror cd.iso

Burn a cdrom.
