[mythtv-users] HELP! I want my mythtv!

[Joseph DeGraw]

I am running a mythbuntu 12.04 install on a FE/BE box. I am using a 500 
gig system drive and then setup a striped raid with mdadm using two 2tb 
drives - all sata. Well, One of my raid drives finally died and I have 
replaced it physically only. My problem is that I cannot get mythbuntu 
to boot. It keeps booting to the busybox initram prompt no matter what I 
do.

I get the normal prompt to bypass the raid mounting and I have tried 
selecting either Y or N and I still get to the busybox initram prompt.

Drive /dev/sda shows fine in checking the the smart data. Short test ran 
fine. Drive also mounted just fine in test box with hot swap bays.

My thinking is that because the raid I use for storage of recordings is 
not available mythbuntu just pukes and goes to the busybox initram 
prompt no matter what.

I would like to recover this and not have to do a complete reinstall. 
Frankly, I didnt like mythbuntu because of network issues after updates 
caused me fits. I used to use fedora for my mythtv but didnt like the 
constant upgrading.

Any help on how you would recover this?
