Using the network script with an NFS route is always going to be
extremely risky, unless you you copy all the binaries and libraries etc
you need over to a tmpfs ramdisk or something. 

If you're using NFS root its much safer just to have an intrd that sets
up networking as you want it first, rather than using the network-bridge
script at all.
