This indicates that your bootloader ENV "bootargs" is missing the
rootpath, nfshost and nfsroot values.

I'm quoting from the Getting Started Guide (spruf73b):

EVM # setenv nfshost <ip address of nfs host>
EVM # setenv rootpath <directory to mount>
EVM # setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200n8 noinitrd rw
ip=dhcp root=/dev/nfs
nfsroot=$(nfshost):$(rootpath),nolock mem=116M
video=davincifb:vid0=720x576x16,2500K:vid1=720x576x16,
2500K:osd0=720x576x16,2025K
davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_output=COMPOSITE
davinci_enc_mngr.ch0_mode=$(videostd)

Also note that you need to have root=/dev/nfs in bootargs.

Hope this helps.
