I'm not following this description. You have a Mac OS X client from which you mount a file system from a remote server, and then the remote server has to be rebooted? I've seen all sorts of NFS problems, but this one is usually on the server end, not the client.

If you are using Mac OS X as the NFS server, then be aware that exporting HFS/HFS+ file systems via NFS is *not* supported in Public Beta of Mac OS X.

What version are you running? AFAIK, there has only been one release of Mac OS X Public Beta.
