your Indigo isn't able to mount the NFS root. According to linux/nfs.h
the error is NFSERR_ACCES.

so it tries to use the floppy drive. But since there is no driver in the
kernel, it tries to load the module for it, which fails.

no root filesystem, no fun.

It's a host bridge, but it should be called ghost bridge instead ;^)
