    It's many years since the last time I compiled a Linux kernel, but
there's a feature I used at beginning:

    In the filesystems section of kernel configuration, there is a
section for special filesystems, in which you can enable NFS, and there
is also the option for the rootfs being on NFS. If you enable this one,
you must tell the address of the server and, when you boot your new
kernel, it will nfs-mount the rootfs for you.

    I don't know if "NFS was not meant to be a filesystem for diskless
worstations", but this very usage of it has been envisioned and enabled
in the Linux kernel, probably from the beginning, and I think it is one
of its usages which makes most sense.
