mdadm: breaks boot due to “is not ready yet or not present” error

I've got a RAID 5 setup for my /home partition. Every two to three boots my hdisks don't seem to be ready in time and my PC hangs saying that /home isn't ready yet.

I then have to manually activate it by pressing M and typing dmraid -ay.
This always activates the /home partition.

How can I tell Ubuntu to wait longer if my home-dir couldn't be mounted yet?

    Are you sure you are using dmraid? Because it does not support raid5. Unless you need to dual boot with windows, fakeraid should be avoided. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto – psusi Jul 20 '11 at 13:58
