Bug Description
This appears to be a regression from Lucid. Attached is a screenshot of the fault, and a preseed to reproduce the
issue. The most relevant parts of the preseed are:
disk-detect disk-detect/
d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/mapper/mpath0
...
d-i pkgsel/include string byobu vim openssh-server multipath-tools multipath-
Which works well with Lucid. However, when I test the precise installer, I get a message
saying dm-multipath.ko couldn't be loaded and it might be a parameter problem. This
module doesn't take any parameters. After hitting continue life goes on until I get
to the partman section which bails because there's no mpath0.
I tested without setting auto/disk just to see and noted it was only presenting sd devices, it doesn't
look like multipath was ever loaded.
I wonder if the requisite modules are even on the installer anymore? The install
is being performed over PXE.
