I'm not familiar with SuSE 8.2,   but here are some hints:

-is it possible that  either the mount of md0 is getting done before  
md0 is assembled, or hdb1  is getting mounted directly?  check  df -v  
right after boot.

- is /boot included in  /   ?     -   It could have been dated info, but 
I read not to include /boot.
     someone please correct this if I'm wrong.

-  do you use  /etc/mdadm.conf  and or  /etc/raidtab ?   maybe there is 
some inconsistent info in those files?

- try  grep  md0  /var/log/   ,  maybe info there will help you debug.

in case it helps, this the info I've got on one of my systems:


root@fbc5:/var/log # mdadm -V
mdadm - v1.0.1 - 20 May 2002
