Today, I reproduced for the third time the error after installing mdadm to get more and better info:
Yes, there was a /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file before installing mdadm. Changed this to mmadmin.conf. After installing mdamd (2.6.7.1-1ubuntu13) a new /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf appears. With diff mmadmin.conf mdadmin.conf no difference found. Using default in grub list: (initrd.img- and vmlinuz-) 2.6.31-20 -generic-pae: After reboot a ALERT! /dev/mapper/pc072003-root does not exist. Dropping to a shell with (initramfs) prompt. Now reboot with the word single before root=/... in grub (alias recovery mode). Same error. Trying to use a other image (initramfs-/vmlinuz- 2.6.31-20-generic) in the grub-list will boot the system. Because mdadm have not changed this initramfs. The only difference is -pae! I could check now that mdadm is monitoring with ps ax | grep mdadm. Running with a pid. On a LVM2 partition and without modifyed initramfs-2.6.31-20-generic! Looking back: Something goes wrong with -pae.
