I think it's a kernel with nfs enabled. This allows it to mount remote file systems. An educated guess would be that it is a kernel tailored by Irex developers to ease development. The Iliad can boot from a remote file system on your development pc. In this way you don't have to re-flash all the time when changing (most) things.

You can probably build it by typing make irex_nfs_config instead of make irex_config in step 6. You can see the differences by looking at the config files themselves: they live in linux-2.4.19-rmk7-pxa2-irex1/arch/arm/def-configs

B.t.w: this is a handy way to handle your own experimental kernel recipes.
