Thanks for a rain of solutions :)
Perhaps I was not clear enough.

Situation is like this:

Two users (A and B) want to use directory /root_fs
on remote NFS server as their root fs. There is a
single directory /home that have to be different.

Of course they can mount /root_fs as root fs and manually
mount some other directory as /home. The question is
how to perform it automatically !!!

Ideal solution will be to create two root directories
/root_fsA and /root_fsB and make all entries in those
directories (apart from /home) to be links to common /root_fs.

Unfortunately it does not works - NFS is not going across
the links.

Another solution (proposed by Omer I think) - is to add
all entries from /root_fsA to /etc/fstab and mount all
them remotely. Unfortunately it does not work also - /root_fsA
is root fs and kernel expect to find there init and a couple of
libraries. Mounting /bin and /lib can be occured only after init
is running..
