If your livecd tried to be helpful by assembling arrays, but couldn't
complete, you end up with partially-assembled inactive arrays like shown
above.  The member devices shown are *busy*, under the expectation that
the remaining device(s) will show up soon. :-)

As Roger tried to suggest, you need to run:

mdadm --stop /dev/md10
mdadm --stop /dev/md12

That'll release the member devices you need.  However, the device
assembly pairs above look suspicious.  I suggest you show mdadm -E for
those devices again to make sure you work with the correct two disks.
(sda and sdc from the original report.)

Then you can do:

mdadm --assemble --force --verbose /dev/mdX /dev/sdY2 /dev/sdZ2

with the correct substitutions for X, Y, and Z.

If that doesn't work, show the output.
