I believe you need to enable "Kernel level autoconfiguration" which is
under Networking->Networking support->Networking options->TCP/IP
networking (IP_PNP), and then you'll have a "Root file system on NFS"
option (ROOT_NFS) available under Network File Systems.

Hi All,
I have one MIPS32 embedded system with Linux Kernel 2.6.23.17. Right
now, I have problem to boot from NFS. The NFS server works fine. I am
able to mount the directory from anther Linux work station. I attach
the .config file, there maybe some config flags I forget to open.
Thanks for your help,
Mike
