Hi,
I just browsed through my kickstart-list summary and saw
that you seem to have the same problems with anaconda that
we had back with FC2 and e1000 NICs.
The first NFS-mount doesn't work with anaconda, but if you then
do the mount by hand it works just fine, right?
OK, someone back then (forgot your name, sorry ;)) suggested a
simple patch to isys/nfsmount.c; Just try to remount the thing
for a maximum number of times. This was the patch that I used
to make things work:

</PATCH>
Simple enough and it worked for me, mayhaps it will work for you.
Good luck!,
