Ok I solved the problem.
It was not the Network, FAI did not know where the NFS server is.

I have made the following changes so that FAI works:
- in PXE config file  root=nfs:fai-server:/srv/fai/nfsroot  (default is root=/srv/fai/nfsroot)
- /srv/fai/nfsroot/etc/fai/fai.conf was not copied from /etc/fai/fai.conf and I configured it with the path to the config space

Now everything works:)

Meanwhile I have updated - FAI 4.1.1 kernel /linux-image-3.13-0.bpo.1-amd64 I have deleted nfsroot and I have started fai-setup again.
Now there is no problem with NFS... but something with network configuration/dhcp is not working.

Starting dhcp  for interface eth0
dhcp: PREINIT eth0 up
dhcp: BOND setting eth0
No carrier detected     <<<< no LINK????  
FS-Cache: loaded
FS-Cache: Netfs 'nfs' registered for caching Key typ dns_resolver registered
NFS: Registering the the id_resolver key tape Key type id_resolver registered Key type id_legacy registered
Random: nonblocking pool is initialized


And nothing happens ....

There is link - earlier message:
e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is up 100 Mbps Full Duplex, Flow control None
