kernel boot parm nfsroot

[John G. Heim]

When I'm specifying the nfsroot in my grub.cfg, I'm hardcoding in the IP 
address of the nfs server. "nfsroot=192.168.0.1:/srv/fai/nfsroot". I 
remember some time ago, back when I was setting up fai for etch, I had to 
figure out how to specify different nfs servers by IP address. Before that,
it used a default or something. In other words, sometime in the distant 
past, the IP address of the nfs server was not hardcoded into the grub 
configuration file.


Is there still some way for me to not have to hard code in the IP address of 
the nfs server. I already tried "nfsroot=faiserver:/srv/fai/nfsroot". It 
generated an error message saying it couldn't parse the parameter.
