Thanks for your bugreport.

The bug for the backtrace is fixed now. The other bug about the degraded
array is a bug with mdadm, I will create a taks for it.

Title:
  mdadm-functions missing udevadm settle (?)

Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Happens at once on boot.

  I happened to use the kernel 3.0.0-17, because the computer would not boot because of the bug that the line
  udevadm settle
  is missing in function degraded_arrays() in the file /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/mdadm-functions which results in a halt on an initram fs console.
