Are you sure that the last number on the line in fstab is 0 for the nfs
mounted disks? If not fsck will try them. Here is an example of my
system:

/dev/wd0a		/		ufs	rw 1 1
/dev/wd0h		/usr		ufs	rw 1 1
/dev/wd1h		/disk2		ufs	rw 1 2
/dev/wd2a		/disk3		ufs	rw 1 2
/dev/wd2b		none		swap	sw
wzv:/usr/spool/news	/usr/spool/news	nfs	ro,nodev,nosuid,noexec,bg,intr 0 0
wzv:/usr/lib/news	/usr/lib/news/sun4	nfs	ro,nodev,nosuid,noexec,bg,intr 0 0
