	1.5ghz Athlon XP w/512MB RAM on an Abit KG7-RAID board. RAID 
	controller is a Highpoint 370 with two 30GB Seagate hard disks
	attached.

>Description:
	Any attempt to boot off a RAID1 that has become degraded will fail
	with a error on attempting to mount the root device. This becomes
	a problem if the hard disk fails and the system is rebooted either
	purposfully, or accidentally. If it is rebooted, the array will
	need to be rebuilt through the controller instead of through
	atacontrol in userland.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Pull a hard disk that is in a RAID1 and being mounted as the
	system disk and attempt to boot off the system.

>Fix:

	Unknown at this time.
