Trouble with a Bladecenter

Hi,

I'm having exact the same problem with our Dell 1955 chassis servers and
until know did not find what is preventing the nfs-mount to succeed.

Tried this one also, no success.

This also does not give any success.

I'm using FAI 3.2.4 with an etch nfsroot and standard 2.6.18-5-486
kernel.

Did Phillip find anything after these suggestions from Tim and Thomas?
