Warning: Unable to open an initial console
This usually means /dev/console doesn't exist.  With many of
today's distributions, this means you didn't boot with a
initrd properly set up to run with your newly built kernel.

The device /dev/console exists, but init/main.c tries to open it
read-write. As the nfsroot is mounted read-only, /dev/console cannot be
opened read-write.

If so, that is a bug.  Whether or not the file system containing the
device node is mounted read-only should not affect how a device can
be opened.
