mount at boot without error RAID partition

I now have a V210 (Solaris 9) up and running with a 278 gig raid5 partition.
(thanks guys). Unfortunately, it is still not working right. Whenever
this box is rebooted, it fails to fsck this massive partition and the
server drops into single user mode. I manually fsck it (it takes abt 10
minutes), there are no errors, and I can mount it and continue. I've
tried several things which required several reboots. At the last reboot
I got tired of fsck-ing a huge partition when I know there will be no
problems, so I mounted it manually without a fsck first. It worked
just fine. I checked the Usual Suspects, including the /etc/vfstab and
in particular the "device to fsck" column, and everything is fine. I
really do not want to have to manually mount this filesystem every time
the server reboots. Does anyone have a suggestion on getting this
partition to mount without bogus errors on bootup?
