This possibly affects other scenarios where the partition separator can be changed. [Test case] 1) Install Ubuntu on multipath system 2) Change /etc/multipath.conf to set "path_separator" to "" or "p". 3) Reboot 4) Run 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/mapper/mpathX', to display a device's partitions where the path separator would be visible. [Regression potential] Minimal. This only affects display. Default separator on Ubuntu remains "-part". If the separator is not one of "", "p", or "-part", then "-part" would be used, as is already the case. == Comment: #0 - Chanh H.
