There should be more details in the "diskless" man page.

But basicaly, on the NFS server, you must redo manually most of the
steps the install script is doing for you.

As to your problem, on the NFS server, cd into /export/vax/dev and
run "./MAKEDEV all".

Also, recreate correctly
/export/vax/etc/{fstab,resolv.conf,hostname.le0,mygate,myname}
