Hi Yan,
   Yes its true, but why. I checked the permissions for the nfs-root directory in /etc/exports and it is set to no_root_squash which should not be a problem.
I could access the nfs server when I boot from ramdisk or NOR flash ...

Why is that it couldnt get mount nfs-root while i boot from sram ???? I assume boot peramets should not be doing this?? 

any hints

Your nfs server did not startup, or with a wrong port.
Best regards,
Yan

Hi,

 I lately upgraded to Bestcomm API v2.2 from v2.1 , but root-nfs doesnt
mount while booting from ram, but when booting from FLASH (Compact Flash
and also NOR) it does well. This problem could be seen when I try to
boot on MPC5200 RevA. 

Then I switched to MPC5200 RevB to see it is the same here, but with
same u.boot.bin and kernel image everything boot well on Rev B. I have
compared the Environment perameters passed from u-boot to the kernel and
everything seems to be the same. I also looked into the Errata to check
if anything else regarding bestcomm or fec has changed, but couldnt
figure out anything.

console messages while booting on MPC5200 RevA from ram goes this
way ...
