After some testing done a system with a RAID1 array here are my results:
mdadm 2.6.7.2: unable to boot from a degraded RAID1 array.
mdadm 2.6.8: able to boot from a degraded RAID1 array.
- jaunty kernel 2.6.28-11-server: error messages are printed on the console (as shown in the attached Screenshot), 2 oopses reported in the kernel log. I've attached the relevant entries from /var/log/kern.log.
- upstream kernel 2.6.29-020629rc8-generic: no error message, no kernel oops.
