Maybe you have upgraded from a very old FAI version to a new
one. Since 3.0 FAI_LOCATION is replaced by FAI_CONFIG_SRC. Check if
you have set the later in your fai.conf.

>From fai.conf:

# how to access the fai config space
# If undefined here, make-fai-nfsroot/fai-setup will use default value
# nfs://<install server>/$FAI_CONFIGDIR
# supported URL-types: nfs, file, cvs, cvs+ssh, svn+file, svn+http,
# git, git+http, hg+http
#FAI_CONFIG_SRC=nfs://yourservername/path/to/config/space

So, make-fai-nfsroot should have set it to nfs://yourservername/srv/fai/config in
$NFSROOT/etc/fai.conf if you didn't defined it in /etc/fai/fai.conf.
