I don't follow your reasoning. You have a remote fs you want to mount
therefore you write an init script - that doesn't follow. If you want
an fs mounted, put it in /etc/fstab. That's what it's there for.
Alternatively you can use autofs. Either make more sense than an init
script.
For nfs you'll want to use the bg option (and possibly others).
