I've done some more tests.

When booting under feisty/2.6.20, everything is fine. When booting under
gutsy/2.6.22, the machine assembles only 3 of my 4 raid devices.


The reason: 

Because of some earlier upgrade (I had to replace a disk when upgrading
from edgy to feisty) one entry in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf had a wrong
UUID. While the UUIDs on the disks were correct and consistent, in
mdadm.conf that entry had still the old UUID, i.e. a different one.

Obviously, under feisty this did not matter, so the problem was not
related to the kernel version, but to the ubuntu version that generated
the initramfs. With gutsy, the contents of mdadm.conf started to matter
and that's why things went wrong until mdadm.conf was corrected.

Solved, can close that bug.

Hadmut
