NFS mounts in /etc/fstab

I have two filesystems defined in /etc/fstab that are mounted over NFS (let call
them /foo and /bar).  During boot, the first mount (/foo) fails, and the second
(/bar) is mounted OK.  After the machine is up and running, if I log in as root
and type mount /foo, it mounts OK.  I had this problem since I installed Core 2,
and after I upgraded to Core 3 last week, the problem is still there.  Both file
systems are defined with exactly the same options in /etc/fstab, line after
line, NFS server is same for both of them.  If I reverse the order in /etc/fstab
(first /bar than /foo), that again the first one specified fails during boot,
and I need to mount it manually.

Anybody else had this problem?  Is there any solution?
