Title:
  NFSroot broken on hardy

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  NFS root seems to be broken on Hardy Heron.

  I installed a copy of Hardy using the mini.iso to a local disk and
  tried to get NFS root working using (my own instructions...) here:
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OnNFSDriveWithLocalBoot.
  Everything seems to go well up until the boot process hits "eth0: link
  up" and then I get nothing. No errors or anything, just sat there
  doing nothing.

  Verified there is no network activity between client and server with
  iftop...

  Tracked it down to a bug in initramfs-tools - see Debian bug# 395145.
  Would be nice if some kind of fix was done - I am having a go at
  getting it working now and if I make progress will post here again.
