Public bug reported: Its basically the same as reported here:
http://efreedom.com/Question/6-103895/Can-Boot-Degraded-Mdadm-Array So I just installed a new system, which is supposed to get later on an additional disk. For now I created md raid1 devices with one disk missing. To get ubuntu booting at all without complaining about a missing disk I already added "bootdegraded=yes" to the kernel command line. And now it ends in an endless loop of unused devices: <none> Attempting to start the RAID in degraded mode... mdadm: CREATE group disk not found Started the RAID in degraded mode.
