I have done oracle on NFS and it is not really the best option due to NFS locking.
ie a poor network or if the NFS server drops, or the NIS/NIS+ (assuming you are using automount maps) dies this will hold your development/production up no end. Also oracle's table locking (not sure if mysql has this) causes problems over NFS. The only time I have seen it work ok was on a veritas cluster using the Oracle/NFS export as a failover and it worked BAD the machine failed over quite a few times and picked up but the machines had to be very powerfull as there was tons of rollbacks and non commited transactions, and non bound variables over NFS was soooo slow. I am sure you could do it but it is not wise. I have stored Oracle binarys on NFS so that clients could access oracle and manage it over NFS but never had good performance keeping the data on NFS.
