  Did you use etherboot?  I use 3.1-RELEASE and etherboot-4.1p9.  I
can boot from network and mount / partition(yes, I can use
diskless).

Did you add below options to diskless kernel configuration?

options         NFS                     #Network File System
options         NFS_ROOT                #NFS usable as root device
options         BOOTP           # Use BOOTP to obtain IP address/hostname
options         BOOTP_NFSROOT   # NFS mount root filesystem using BOOTP info
options         BOOTP_NFSV3     # Use NFS v3 to NFS mount root
options         BOOTP_COMPAT    # Workaround for broken bootp daemons.
options         BOOTP_WIRED_TO=fxp0 # Use interface fxp0 for BOOTP
                               ~~~~ your bootp interface name

Cheers.
