noauto mostly is as you say. However nofail (AIUI) just means "carry on even if this device cannot be mounted", which I thought would apply to your case, but I think I've misunderstood the situation because... > - in my case the > raid device is used for the root-partition (/). ... there is no way of continuing without the root partition. So I'm afraid this has been a red-herring, sorry. I was about to suggest that you start by filing a bug against the "mdadm" package (the RAID utilities), since the maintainers of that ought to be best placed to either fix the issue or identify the actual subsystem which isn't behaving. However there looks to be a few entries in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=mdadm which seem relevant to your situation, e.g. #770002, #714155. If having looked through that list and found the none of them seem to apply to your case then I would suggest filing a bug against that package. Alternatively you might first want to try the debian-users list for more generic user support rather than the ARM specific knowledge of the folks on this list.
