Hi Konrad,

Indeed, the initrd would need an extra package, like this:

Can you try if it works?

However, we should provide an =E2=80=98nfs-utils-static=E2=80=99 package be=
cause the
above leads to a very big initrd (the closure of =E2=80=98nfs-utils=E2=80=
=99 is
~200=C2=A0MiB).

HTH,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
