Ok, I managed to capture some output, but it doesn't mean much to me. 
If anyone can help with some type of diagnosis, I would much
appreciate it since i'm killing myself over this one.  The dmesg
output is at (appended with timestamp):
http://www.lebox.org/milan/debug/

The first dmesg snapshot right after a boot, 2nd after mdadm -A
/dev/md0 -f /dev/sda1 ... command and final two while mount /dev/md0
/mnt/tmp hangs; same as described above.

Thanks for any advice!
