PXE boot: "Unable to find a live file system on the network"

[PROBLEM]
I was trying to boot a Xubuntu Desktop live-CD image over the network, using PXE. Everything was working smoothly, but when trying it later again the splash-screen appeared, but dropped into a busybox shell, saying:
(initramfs) done.
Unable to find a live file system on the network
[SOLUTION]
The PXE boot server, DHCP, tFTP was running, but: the nfs-kernel-server wasn't started!
Starting it might help ;)

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
