Title:
  System couldn't boot from degraded raid 1

Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Situation: i created software raid 1 configuration. Boot, swap and
  root were on different partitions. After that i tried to emulate
  harddrive problem. For this testcase i used virtualbox machine. I
  removed one of harddrive containers from virtual machine and tried to
  boot.

  What expected: system boots normal.

  What happened: First time after deletion system boots normal, but
  second time it drops into initramfs. I see that md devices exists in
  system and i can mount them. And array was marked as degraded. When i
  return disk back system loads normal, but raid is checked as degraded
  and i need to add partitions to raid again. But if i don't do it
  system drops to initramfs again. So looks like system loads with
  degraded raid only if hardware configuration was  changed.  Here few
  screenshots.
