Are you sure this is the case? Software raid and LVM are both kernel things (with userland support utilities), and they're autodetected using magic numbers on the partitions. As long as the kernel is compiled with support, I'd expect them to be accessible. It might be that the autodetection just isn't running on startup; I wonder if some work with mdadm and the LVM utilities would get you access to the volumes. It might at least be worth a try.
