I thought it helpful to link to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/872220 which seems related, although pertains specifically to inappropriate boot failures due to irrelevant disks being degraded rather than racing conditions coming from disks being erroneously degraded.
It's stating the obvious but I found I could boot normally with degraded softraid disks by uninstalling mdadm, which removes the mdadm scripts from the /usr/share/initramfs-tools folder and the initrd image. I'll try to find a fix for my problem, but thing 872220 is a more appropriate place for and fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990913 Title: RAID goes into degrade mode on every boot 12.04 LTS server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/990913/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
