I don't know how to affect that, but are you sure that's actually the
problem?

In my experience, a boot problem involving mirrored RAID 1 is more
likely to be a GRUB issue, needing to be fixed with something like:

# grub-install /dev/sdb

(This assumes that /dev/sdb1 really is a valid mirror of /dev/sda1; I'm
taking that on faith because you didn't include the output of "mdadm
--detail" and "mdadm --examine".)
