I was apparently missing something like the raid1 kernel module in the initramfs in my fedora 21 partition, but I disabled the mdmonitor service and removed the raid filesystem from the /etc/fstab, yet the system still could not boot. It spent several minutes trying to recognize the raided disks then went into the dracut shell.
Should it really be utterly impossible to boot a system that merely has raided disks connected to it which no one is trying to reference? Should I make a kernel bug for this?
