I'm doing the same thing, and it took me awhile to realize that if the
compiled-in drivers are unable to find the NIC, the NFS filesystem
isn't loaded.  After installing the driver for the NIC, install the
NFS module under the 'Filesystems' or 'fs' section of the kernel
module listing.  Hope this helps.

I would *very* much appreciate it if you would let me know how it
goes, as I'm having trouble installing over NFS, and no one here seems
inclined to answer my questions.  I'm curious to know if my problems
are unique.
