I'm experiencing the same problem. I've recently installed a fresh copy
of 12.04 on my home server and created a RAID 1 array with two identical
disks using the disk utility for data storage (boot, system, home
directories on other separate disks).

To try out my RAID array, I shut down and remove the cables, then boot.
I expect the RAID to magically mount (I have it in fstab) and let me
write some data to the partition. After rebooting with the cables back
in, I expect it to magically sync the disks... (But maybe that is hoping
too much?)

What happens instead is that the system fails to boot and I get thrown
into a busybox shell, even if the system/boot is on an entirely
different disk. This happens even if I add 'noauto' in fstab for the
RAID partition.
