You are welcome.  LOL, I guess I'm popular in the archives.

First, try using the IP addresss instead of the name in your 
syslinux.cfg file (the ks=nfs:... line).  If you do an install, and 
input your language, keyboard, nfs server location, etc., does it find 
the installation directory?  Check Ctrl+Alt+F3 and F4 to see if you have 
any error messages.
