In the first mail you sent, there was an mdadm.conf.
But now:


> root@localhost:~# cat /etc/mdadm.conf

there isn't.
Why is that?

If you want mdadm to assemble an array you need to tell it where to find
the devices and how to recognise them.  The mdadm.conf you had before
was exactly the right sort of thing to have.
Without it you need to be more explicit
  mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-m]
maybe.
Or after creating the array
  mdadm -D > /etc/mdadm.conf
