The error indicates that too many receive buffer descriptors were freed from the receive chain. The driver must be losing count somewhere. The process for duplicating the error sounds simple enough, how much data is in your NFS mounted directory? Are you using TCP or UDP for the NFS mount? Any idea what type of network activity is happening just after /etc/rc.d/netif start (DHCP, NTP, anything else)?
