had another look and saw you have the no root squash option
I don't know anything about wraplinux. My server is on sarge and I booted
few clients with no problem, but I used custom initrd (and kernel).
I also don't understand (created image, and stuck it on a floppy). Did you
use the floppy to flash your network card's bios or to boot from?
I would just check the initrd file
cd /tmp
mkdir test
cd test
zcat /boot/<INITRD> | cpio -i -H newc
... do whatever you need to mount rw ...
find . ! -name "*~" | cpio -H newc --create | gzip -9 > /boot/<INITRD>
watch out - this will overwrite your initrd, so make backup
