@Vlastimil does your edit applies when the system isn't located on the RAID disk ?

@Stphane Yes, it does. I, personally, update initramfs after each update to mdadm.conf.

@Stphane - even when the raid is "just storage" it is better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

sudo mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf didn't work for me, but sudo -i followed by mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf did. I imagine the sudo only applied to the first command and not the pipe into mdadm.conf? Might trip other newbies like me up too.
