I don't think that's it. This problem almost definitely has to do
with booting off a RAID set, since I'm using the same kernel I was
before I tried booting off a RAID set, and the kernel works fine in
that case.

It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
