I am still looking for someone to implement NFS root with this, please contact me if you are interested. This will not be the final version, there is still some work to do, but for now this requires more testing.
Okay, version 0.5.99.5 is up. This adds NFS support, but that requires the packages mkinitcpio-nfs-utils, which I haven't created yet, and maybe won't until tomorrow or so. Other than that, mkinitcpio should be feature-complete and thus be considered "0.6-rc1".
I will send another message when mkinitcpio-nfs-utils (which is ipconfig and nfsmount ported from klibc) is up so NFS support can be tested.
A git repository for these tools has been set up at http://projects.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio-nfs-utils.git/ I still need to add a license, after I find out how the original tools were licensed (there is some confusion, I think they were BSD, but also might be GPL, the original klibc tarball doesn't say). After that and some small Makefile changes, I will provide a package for it.
