    I don't know anything about RAIDs, yet, but do they
use /etc/fstab or anything like it?

man fstab
reveals information about the order of file system
checks (fsck) shown in the "sixth field."  I would
guess that root needs to be checked first in any
system.  File systems should be checked before being
mounted.
