Ben's right that you should use "rootwait" (I don't think it works with
the underscore in the middle), rootdelay=5 if you want the boot to fail
if the partition isn't mounted after a little extra time, or an initrd
if you want full control over rootfs mounting.

These parameters are documented in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.

Thanks,
