It's probably not the md driver which is hanging (it's fairly harmless hardware wise) but whatever comes after it. I don't know exactly what that may be, but it could be a SCSI adapter, network card, .. Which of these do you have? You might need to give parameters to the kernel to tell it their addresses etc to avoid hangs.
