I have had a 9.2 database on Solaris 9 running with the datafiles on an NFS mounted volume from a NetApp filer. As I recall the options were important, we use:
hard,bg,rw,vers=3,proto=tcp,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,forcedirectio
These were recommended to us by EMC (the database was for an installation of their Documentum eDMS product so they were involved in the implementation) and confirmed by Oracle as correct.
We have since moved to 10g2 with the same mounts and had no problems.
Hope this helps.
