you're trying to get xenial to work as the nfsroot?  i spent a while on
that, too, and think i got to about the same point.  iirc, as suggested
by a launchpad bug, i found the package(s) that depended on
initramfs-tools and rebuilt to depend on linux-initramfs-tool instead
(which dracut Provides).  but once that was done it turned out that
(again, iirc) ubuntu's initramfs management didn't actually work
w/dracut in place.

at that point i gave up and went with a jessie nfsroot.
