I have three other clients perfectly booting.
I  shutdown all three clients and even then the same
   

problem persists.

If  you didn't change anything at all (server side), that's weird. My 
first try would be to restart the nfs-server (while all clients are 
switched off) and then reboot them one by one.
If you encounter the situation that your problem client won't boot, but 
one that you switched on after it does very well, it could be some 
network hardware problem. There were cases were switching the hub port 
of one client solved the problem! For excluding cabling & switch timing 
problems and the like, connecting the client to the server with a 
crossover cable seems a good idea. In the long run, switching those NICs 
for rtl8139 cheap 100MBit NICs (I currently buy them at less than 4 EUR) 
could be good idea as well.
