You have your root partition running, so you can check how /boot was mounted in /etc/fstab: were you really using the md or just pointing to sdaX?
I do have /dev/md/root mounted on /mnt/sysimage and I have looked in there.
/etc/mdadm.conf matches exactly what was generated in the rescue environment when I ran
mdadm --examine --scan >/etc/mdadm.conf
My question was about /etc/fstab. If you actually have had /dev/md/boot as /boot in /etc/fstab, how is it possible that the /dev/md/boot partition is now empty just because the RAID has switched to degraded mode? My suspicion is that you were not using the RAID for /boot.
Anyway, even if your /boot content is indeed lost, you can still manage to repair the system.
