Title:
  Ubuntu fails to boot with a dead drive in a RAID

Status in “mdadm” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Setting up a server now, with some six drives in a raid-6 plus a
  spare. It seems, if one drie fails, the server reboots, and it boots
  into busybox, rendering it rather useless. What would be the use for a
  RAID-6 system (with a spare) if I can't lose a disk?
