For some unknown reason, nfs-root installs will hang after a couple of
minutes if you're using nfs4. This doesn't happen with nfs3, so force
nfs3 by default.
This breaks the normal fallback to nfs2, so if nfs3 doesn't work you'll
need to change your repo arg to something like 'nfs:vers=2:SERVER:PATH'.
I'm told that nfs2-only servers should be pretty rare at this point, so
I think this is a reasonable requirement.
