Well, for what it is worth, we _did_ try numerous of combinations of portfast/spanning tree settings at the time and none worked with the e1000. At least for NFS mounts it seems reasonable to check if the mount worked and if not retry for a set number of times. Anaconda defaults to NFS over UDP (can one easily change this BTW?) so this to me just seems like prudent programming...
