The /boot partition is on /dev/md1 which is mdadm RAID1 array. I would expect
that initrd assembles the /dev/md1 array when the system boots, right? It does
assemble /dev/md2 (/) and /dev/md3 (swap), but not /dev/md1. As a result, fsck
on /boot (which hosted on /dev/md1) fails and normal system's boot-up sequence
stops.
I had to disable fsck on /boot to bring up the system. And after that I have to
assemble /dev/md1 and mount it to /boot MANUALLY EVERY TIME I REBOOT THE
SYSTEM.
Please let me know if you need any other info.
