Problems with mdadm and a usb harddrive.

[William Lynch]

Hi everybody,

I have a question that I was hoping someone could help with. I'm  
using a RAID5 for storage. 3 disks. However, 2 of the discs are  
internal, and 1 is an external usb drive. When I restart the  
machine, /dev/sda1 (the usb drive) is never brought back up with the  
rest of the drive, and it's in a degraded state. It seems to do this  
(off of dmesg) because the usb drive is brought up after the raid5 is  
brought up. Is there any way to delay the startup of the raid5 until  
after usb drives are seen?

Thanks!
William Lynch
