Are you using a GENERIC kernel? Can you provide your full boot.cfg? What are the last lines the kernel prints before it tries to mount the root NFS share? There should be a quite detailed output of what the DHCP server answered and this includes the root file system option that the kernel then will try to mount (and my guess is that something is wrong in the DHCP server configuration).
