We had this same problem, and fixed it by simply adding the
parameter "bg" to the parameters for the nfs file systems
in /etc/fstab.  This tells mount that if it cannot mount
an nfs file system on the first try, to put the mount in
the background waiting for the file system to become
available, and then continue with the boot.
