Funny enough, once I stopped dhclient from resetting an interface's
address to 0.0.0.0 (and filing a bug upstream about it) and then
re-enabled the interface in /etc/network/interfaces, my netboot/nfsroot
system is working just peachy. Well apart from the ugly messages about
failing to mount (other, non /) NFS filesystems first time through.
