Hi Nicolas,

I can reproduce your reboot loop!
The problem is a bug in the fai-make-nfsroot script from FAI 6.2.2
which prevent the nfsroot root to build correctly.

The easiest way is to have FAI 6.2.2. installed on the host and use the
fai-make-nfsroot from FAI 6.0
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/faiproject/fai/6.0/bin/fai-make-nfsroot

Then make sure
sysvinit-core systemd-sysv-
IS included in /etc/fai/NFSROOT
and recreate the nfsroot.

That worked for me booting FAI with bullseye. Inside the nfsroot you
will have FAI 5.10.3.
