Yes. In fact those were the only ones I saw problems with. (But I haven't
seen the problem enough to know if that is by luck or not.)
The two arrays listed were my /boot and an alternate version I have mounted
as /otherboot .
My swap array also has two elements. / and /home only have one element.
None of those are in /etc/mdadm.conf, but something is setting up those arrays
or the system wouldn't be able to finish booting.
