I've had no problem getting a 4.0-current (upgraded from 3.8-current,
through 3.9-current) system (Soekris NET4801-50) working in just this

NFS kernel supplied from a CF based filesystem on one Soekris box, root
and swap on a NAS device.
Boxes are mounted in the neat kd85.com rack-mount case (Thanks Wim!).
Kernel is built using a quick patch:
