Well the routing tables should be fine, you've either got them up or you haven't, there's nothing to wait for in terms of pure time. You can try moving the netfs script later in the boot process maybe, but i'd be reckoning there's something specific causing this. I've seen this on a bunch of systems I had to take over where the users had just totally rearranged all the scripts, when in fact the issue was that they were using trunked network ports and the Cisco switch they were connected to was insisting on a full 50 second stp timeout before it'd forward packets. Unlikely that it's exactly that, but it did happen to me, and took me a long time to really suss out, but I fixed it properly on the switch side instead of fudging the init scripts. You can certainly add some temporary debug scripts to the equation, e.g. dumping the routing tables to a file within the start() of the netfs script.
