Unfortunately is already 'most'. There is a way to check which modules are
included in the actual initramfs?
I'm not sure how initramfs works when you have different kernels available.
There is an initramfs image for each kernel? I mean, if I do an
update-initramfs and I booted with kernel 3.2, the command will affect the
3.2 initramfs or the 3.26 initramfs?
If I screw up the old kernel boot I couldn't boot for good.

Yes, there's a specific module to manage raid? Maybe the problem it's that.
