You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Booting degraded RAID has regressed in Jaunty.

When I try to boot a degraded RAID, I get the error messages in the
attached screenshot.

There appears to be a nasty bug in the kernel md code that's causing this.
  kobject_add_internal failed for dev-sda1 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory

This is on an up-to-date Jaunty server.
