The error message from mount, as well as the saved syslog file might have some clues, but perhaps you haven't installed portmap (or haven't started it)? You will also need nfs-utils, and I've seen recommendations to use the "-o nolock" mount option in %post.
If this all still fails, I'd suggest to break out into a shell in the "fail" tree of your %post, to allow you to do some debugging. Something like
chvt 6 /bin/bash -i </dev/tty6 >&/dev/tty6
