Package: multipath-tools
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
all of multipath is pretty useless if we don't already detect the MPs
from the initrd. multipath-tools come with scripts (01_udev,
02_multipath) that can be put into /etc/mkinitrd/scripts to do just
this. I'm using the attached small patch to make these tools work on
current Debian.
Cheers,
