   P.S. bootimage is tftp-ed and install via nfs mount.

I've seen this problem.  You can still salvage the installation by
booting the tftpboot image with root=/dev/xxx where xxx is the root
partition device.  Then once it is up, login as root and run
"/sbin/silo" then you can reboot from the disk just fine.

Later,
