I think that you need some special information in the DHCP server to
get the root path. My isc dhcp server is configured for that like so:
host avila.example.com {
filename "kernel.avila";
hardware ethernet 00:d0:12:02:76:58;
fixed-address 192.168.0.10
option root-path "192.168.0.2:/nfsroots/gateworks";
option root-opts "nolockd";
}
