/mnt/v21.highcoup.ca/usr/src                    nfs     r 
noauto        0       0

/mnt/v21.highcoup.ca/usr/local/etc        nfs     r noauto

change this:
v21.higcoup.ca:/usr/src /mnt/v21.highcoup.ca/usr/src                    
nfs     r noauto        0       0

to:
v21.higcoup.ca:/usr/src /mnt/v21.highcoup.ca/usr/src                    
nfs   r,bg,intr   0   0

and likewise for the second NFS entry...you should still specifiy a 
timeout, but you'll have to decide on one..and the system will boot with 
those options with the NFS server down..
