OK, Ubuntu doesn't use NFSROOT (the kernel's implementation), it actually
does a real mount in user space. So all the normal NFS and generic mount
options ought to work.
I didn't realize that. I wonder why, especially since it doesn't work. So
they pack a copy of nfs-utils in their initrd? And I could maybe use v4 as
the root?
But if that's the case then I'm getting off topic for this list. Thanks for
your help.
