Some SM15K fail to boot after told to localboot.

After installation and the nodes trying to localboot, I see the following error when trying to load the OS:

This is with:
ii maas 1.8.0~rc3+bzr3997-0ubuntu1~trusty1 all

and

ii curtin-common 0.1.0~bzr213-0ubuntu1~ppa0 all Library and tools for curtin installer
ii python-curtin 0.1.0~bzr213-0ubuntu1~ppa0 all Library and tools for curtin installer

Following workaround was applied to trusty and precise preseeds:

$ tail -n 3 /etc/maas/preseeds/curtin_userdata
multipath:
mode: disabled

and system deployed ok.
