This is very strange. I would only expect problems, if the disk is not wiped.

I took your disk_config file from the fai.log and did an installation
with FAI 5.5, kernel 4.9 and dracut 045+132-1 inside the nfsroot. Then
I started a new kvm machine with a fresh, empty disk. Everything works
fine. No problems.

So I cannot reproduce your error.
