Package: partman-base Severity: wishlist Debian busybox recently added support for NFS mount, I've submitted a wishlist bug for linux-2.6 to build nfs-modules udeb (#671874), and here is a wishlist bug to add NFS root support to partman.
Some ideas: - use DHCP root-path option (code 17) to get host IP and export name, or ask user (default host IP is gateway IP?). A basic "mount -t nfs -o nolock PATH TARGET" is needed to mount the fs. Maybe I should look into creating partman-nfs or something myself, but I'm not sure where to start...
