Oh!
"/usr/export/pmax" is too long. With the null, the limit on BOOTP
options means the pathname needs to be <= 15 chars. that's hammered
home in the dhcpd.conf I sent Simon, I thought it was in the notes
too.
Another FAQ I guess.
Anyway, the trick is to make a symlink on the NFS server, say
/pmax-root -> /usr/export/pmax,
and then use /pmax-root in the bootptab.
And/or export both via /etc/exports or whatever.
