No...  the autoconfiguration bits happen in the kernel long before 
init is run.  Allowing multi-layered RAID stuff for root would likely 
require teaching the bootblocks about RAID 0 sets, and that's quite a 
bit harder than supporting RAID 1 sets.  (Autoconfiguration of 
multi-layer RAID sets could be done with a little work, but there 
hasn't bene a whole lot of demand for it...)
