"I don't see any problem, but I have a problem. What's my problem?"
So much information in your post.
I guess that you have a shared directory, somewhere in your network, and that you're trying to mount it at boot time.
Are you using the _netdev mount option in /etc/fstab, to wait for the network to be ready before trying to mount the remote directory?
If the above doesn't solve, how are your runlevels and daemons configurated?
What does dmesg say about mounts?
Can we see your /etc/fstab, and which is the problematic mount?
