Package: multipath-tools-initramfs
Severity: important

Hi,

Looks like dm-emc is the only shared storage specific kernel module of
the device mapper system, so I suggest to automatically include it in
the initramfs, obsoleting the need to manually configure it in
/etc/initramfs-tools/modules.

After all, my /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/multipath_hook contains:

[...]
copy_exec /sbin/devmap_name /sbin/
copy_exec /sbin/multipath /sbin/
for helper in /sbin/mpath_prio_*; do
    copy_exec $helper /sbin
done
manual_add_modules dm-emc

mkdir -p $DESTDIR/lib || true
[...]

I think it's general enough for being included as is.

Thanks,
Feri.

(Now if only I found a way to get rid of those gazillions of SCSI errors
during system startup...)
