CONFIG_IP_PNP and suboptions as well as CONFIG_ROOT_NFS should be enabled in Xen guest kernels in order for NFS root to be used in Xen guests.Yes, the NFS root option is attractive. But in-kernel NFS root has all sorts of problems. We'd far prefer to have eventual support in the initrd for NFS mounting, and avoid the kernel issue altogether.
Interesting, I guess I'll give explicit mounts inside the initrd a try then. Thanks!
