Oh dear, that means you are using intel fake raid. I had no end of trouble when I tried to do that, and often had to manually start the raid in the initramfs before the boot would continue. Unless you are sharing the drive with windows I would highly recommend avoiding that, and doing the software raid purely in linux. It is much simpler and much better supported. -- Len Sorensen
