I have a suggestion to deprecate the BOOTP_NFSV3 option, and I wanted to get some feedback.

If NFS_ROOT and BOOTP_NFSV3 are defined, then it is a noop in sys/i386/i386/locore.s?

If NFS_ROOT is defined and BOOTP_NFSV3 is undefined then it copies in a nfs_diskless structure in
sys/i386/i386/locore.s?  Is this still needed?

If BOOTP_NFSV3 is defined in sys/nfsclient/bootp_subr.c, then it will attempt a nfsv3 mount and
then fall back to a nfsv2 mount.  Should that eventually be the default behavior?

Regards,
David Yeske
