Package: mdadm
Version: 3.3.2-5

This version of mdadm will not boot a degraded RAID1 array with a missing disk.

When booting under the above circumstances, I am dropped to a busybox shell 
with disk not found message.

I have confirmed this on physical and virtual machines.

This bug appears to be happening to other people. For example:

The wheezy version (3.2.5-5) will boot under these circumstances. Manually 
installing the wheezy version in Jessie results in creation of a bootable 
initrd (and successful boot up).

This is a severe error for my usage (being inaccessible hosts with RAID1 disks).

Let me know if I can provide additional information.

Damien
