You might have better luck with this: http://wiki.emacinc.com/wiki/Booting_with_an_NFS_Root_Filesystem It explains how to specify client kernel boot commandline parameters on your DHCP server that will make NFSROOT work.
Hello Chuck, Thanks to you, it now works. At first, I had mistakenly assumed U-boot was somehow passing the root-path variable to Linux, but, in fact, Linux gets it from the DHCP server (just like U-boot does). Thus, if I set my boot command line to: ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs rdinit=/none console=ttyS0,115200 mem=640M and if I change my DHCP server configuration to: option root-path "172.27.64.1:/export/roots/6_2_0_8756,v3"; then everything works as expected, and my kernel no longer needs to supportNFSv2.
