If NFS is the only issue, have you considered using the 'bg' mount option? The nfs(5) man page discusses it:
That seems to do the trick. I was a bit worried that the failure would just migrate to the next network service (ypbind on the cluster nodes), but the delay waiting for the initial try at the NFS mount to fail seems to be long enough.
Thanks!
