[Bug 817401] [NEW] after installing mdadm on live usb (persistent), usb doesn't boot anymore

[Vitya Gaburov]

Public bug reported:

it is on 11.04 (natty)

N.B. three hdds (sda, sdb, sdc), sda is root (ubuntu installed), sdb+sdc
are in raid1 (created by mdadm). so if hdd with ubuntu fails, I wanted
to be able to load live usb, and use my raid1 (for restore backup and
stuff).

so I boot from live usb, then "sudo apt-get install mdadm", and reboot...
and live usb does not boot anymore says something wrong with -init.

is it a bug or fixable?
