Did my latest updates for my Kubuntu (Ubuntu KDE variant) this

verbose tells me that device /dev/md1 (or 2 or 3 - I tried a couple
just to see) doesn't exist. And in fact, there are no block devices
listed beyond md0.
Sounds like udev is in use rather than a static /dev.
Add '--auto=md' to the mdadm command line, and it will create the
devices for you. Or --auto=part if you want partitioned arrays. See
man page for more details.
I suspect this might need to be come the default in another year or so....
i was tkinking about stat()ing "/dev/.udev" and automatically enabling
--auto if found
WDYT?
