What about this thread:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2004/01/msg00129.html

The thread suggests:

- ... another module was necessary (System V IPC in my case) ...
- Kernel support for ELF binaries
- IA32 bit emulation
=> are all compiled in my kernel

If I install that kernel on an other 64 bit system, it boots fine. Only when it's installed in the FAI nfsroot it doesn't work.



In some other threads I found
- incorrect binformat. (i.e. you try to load a module which was compiled
for a different architecture).  
(http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2005-October/016713.html)


- what about your modprobe format, i.e. what does file modprobe report in your
  nfsroot vs. file modprobe on the native 64bit system?

Do you really have a 64bit nfsroot or are you using your 32bit nfsroot?

This is in the FAI nfsroot:
(chroot /ugdisk/pure64 and then chroot /fai/nfsroot-amd64)
wopr:/# file /sbin/modprobe
/sbin/modprobe: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

On the native machine 64bit machine:
/sbin/modprobe: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

I'm using the 64 bit nfsroot
PS.: What about an older kernel?

I'm going to try it.
