I have created a bootable CD-ROM using GRUB, but I do not use fai-cd.  I 
only use the CD-ROM to boot the kernel and load the initrd, after those 
steps the system boots using NFS. I have also successfully used a 
similar process to boot from a USB "thumb" drive. If this set-up would 
help you I can attempt to explain how to create your own.
