Bug#408247: fai-chboot: should read make-fai-nfsroot.conf to get NFSROOT

[Holger Mense]

Hi,

 fai-chboot still looks in fai.conf for $NFSROOT but this has moved
 to make-fai-nfsroot.conf.
 Since NFSROOT is not defined in fai.conf, fai-chboot uses the default
 path of /srv/fai/nfsroot. So fai-chboot is not broken for most
 users. Puuh. I though this could be another grave bug, but it's not
 that critical.

I am currently in the process of migrating our Sarge FAI-System to Etch. 
Yesterday I stumbled over this one, because my NFSROOT is not at the default
location.

This should be really fixed for Etch even if it is not a real critical one. At 
least it is annoying.
