However my issue was 98% my initrd.img. I was using the one from my standard build (no software raid) and in the init file it had sda6 as the root volume, so obviously when the system was booting up it was not dealing with my md selections in /etc/fstab, until after the kernel was up and thus tying up one of my root partitions (the md activity was started later than it should of). I created a new mkinitrd and it in fact updated the init file in that package to reflect that it needed to start the MD auto descovery earlier on and use /dev/md7 vs a /dev/sd device. So yes after months, i can say I'm totally golden with a software raid install from a standard image.. So the new initrd is in my mirror override directory, so w00t! : (one image, 2 scripts, a couple of overrides!)
