How are you mounting the filesystem? (I don't remember details from the prior discussion) Directly with /dev/mdXXX or are you using some other link? If you are using some other link then udev needs time to get the original mdXXX creation event and then create other links pointing to mdXXX. And as someone else said, I would put it all in a single script and call that single script and add dates and echo's of various sorts and send both stderr and stdout to a log file. I usually just appended to the log file and then once in a while clear the file manually, but you can also just overwrite.
