Comment 50 for bug 75681

I suspect that this is the issue I'm experiencing with my desktop. My root partition is /dev/md0, but after upgrading to feisty, my system is no longer boots and throws me to busybox. I noticed in busybox that my sata drives are missing from /dev, which explains why the array isn't being mounted.

One workaround that seems to work so far (although I have not thoroughly tested it) is booting the kernel with the option 'break=mount'. This seems to somehow fix everything, as by the time I get thrown to busybox, my drives are already in /dev, as well as my raid array, so I just press ctrl+d to continue booting.
