ok,

I don't think Fedora is the pb here... See my answers below.

Some lines are missing here. I don't see how you invoked the nfs mounting.
Route must be added on both devices, Fedora and h2210. Using 202/32 is a
bad idea. Use exact ip, safer :)
Make sure all services related to nfs mounting are up. It's a good idea
too to dedicate a special hostname to h2210 in /etc/hosts.
But look below...

This one is easy. The usb gadget on h2210 did not initialize
properly, or isn't started yet. Make sure you point to
Michael's zImage&initrd. If this was already the case,
unpluging the usb part of the usb/serial cable and pluging it
again should do the trick. Fedora should then recognize usb0
again.

Make sure no modules are still loaded on usb0, otherwise the
h2210's usb gadget will be seen as usb1 :(
dmesg on Fedora will tell you more :)

So your best shot is: reboot Fedora, create nfs scripts, plug
h2210, start minicom, then haret on h2210, launch nfs scripts.
This should work with Michael's zImage&initrd
