Binary package hint: mdadm

if i unplug one hd from raid1 i cannot successfully boot because raid starts only if all disks are available through

: "${MD_DEGRADED_ARGS:= --no-degraded}" in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/mdadm

my workaround is:

/etc/initramfs-tools/hooks/startdegradedraid
