Public bug reported:

Once again booting from RAID is broken.

There were similar bugs in Jaunty, Karmic, and Lucid.
I don't recall encountering this error in Natty.
It was definetly not present in Oneiric.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade to Precise (fresh install not tested, but likely has the same 
problem)
2. Reboot
3. Observe failure to find root and drop to busybox

initramfs is not loading dmraid and therefore fails to boot.

To work around this, when given the busybox prompt enter:

dmraid -ay

and verify that your raid devices are initialized, thn enter:

exit

and booting should continue.
