We had the same problems on a DBAU1200 board, because that board uses smc91c111 chip, which has small RX buffers, and a lot of RX overruns happened. We solved this by specifying additional kernel command line parameter: nfsroot=,tcp which specifies that for the NFS TCP should be used instead of UDP. I hope this helps. BR, Matej
