I finally figured this out. You're right, it wasn't finding the live image, because the path I gave was wrong. The script appends "/live" ($LIVE_MEDIA_PATH) to the root path you pass, so the nfsroot parameter to the script should have been "192.168.53.66:/local/debian-live/binary" (and LH_NET_ROOT_PATH when building the images should have been "/local/debian- live/binary"). Can I suggest that if the mount_images_in_directory() function doesn't find any images to mount, it should print out a warning or error, including the directory in which it is looking for images? Or are there valid configurations in which you might not need to mount an image? The way this broke seems quite fragile to me. Many thanks for your help with this!
