I was having a similar problem too (the "booting" issue, not the "USB keyboard" issue). It turned out to be a race condition within the "init" script the system was running on boot. The "md" weren't getting built quick enough before the boot process tried to use them.
Here is what I did: 1: Edit the "/usr/share/initramfs-tools/init" file 2: Find the line "maybe_break mount" (about line 145) 3: Add a "sleep 10" after that line. Should look like this (ignore line numbers): 145 maybe_break mount 146 sleep 10 147 log_begin_msg "Mounting root file system..." 4: Save and exit the editor. 5: Run "sudo /usr/sbin/update-initramfs -uk all" to rebuild the initramfs image. When you reboot, the system will sleep for an additional 10 seconds before trying to mount the filesystems. If this works, you can try tweaking the time down a bit. I've seen someone write up a more complex set of tests that don't rely on a set sleep time, but rather wait until the software raid pieces are ready, but that fix is beyond the scope of this reply (and I don't have that information a the moment).
