Strange thing. The raid volumes problem was an error in my mdadm.conf
that the earlier commit of 2.6.32 was apparently not sensitive to... I
didn't think that was a kernel related file. The USB problem hasn't
reoccurred, even though it happened on 3 consecutive boots earlier, with
successful boots of the older kernel in between.
