OK, I guess I know the problem. In the past fai.conf was copied from
/etc/fai into the nfsroot and used during installation. This is not
done any more by default.

You should define most variables in your config space in class/*.var.
Except for FAI_CONFIG_SRC which has to be defined very early. Use
fai-chboot -u for that. This does the same as providing this variable
as kernel parameter.
