Title:
  RAID modules loaded too late in the boot sequence

Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  If you get kernel messages like this:
        md: personality for level 1 is not loaded!

  And when you run:
     mdadm --detail /dev/md0
  You get:
     State : active, Not Started

  This is most likely cause by the fact that the RAID1 module is loaded
  AFTER the array is brought online.  This happens to me mostly on older
  (slow) computers.

  To fix, create a file in this folder:
    /etc/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top

  Call the script what you like and put something like this in the file:

  #!/bin/sh
  modprobe raid1

  You should be okay after that.

  Hope this helps,
  Gérald
