Since you were suggesting the RESULSTS.txt would have important info, I took a 
good long look at the differences in the two Systems' results.

Finally, adding this to the grub config

GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=false

and changing my /etc/fstab

-       /dev/md0 /boot ...
+       UUID=(uuid of the md0) /boot ...

now both Systems boot up without any delay.

There's no other RAID or disk devices on either system so I don't know what 
might be getting searched incorrectly but it seems that explicitly setting the 
UUID= does the trick.

I still have the Grub installed in the partition on the one SYstem -- but I 
guess that since the MBR is *also* installed that that takes precedence, and 
the info in the partition gets ignored.

Not 100% sure of that though.  And would like to figure out how to remove from 
the partition, leaving the MBR alone, and NOT screwing my setup!
