I understand that curtin has been working around grub's behavior by manually setting GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true; this is a bad solution, grub-probe / update-grub should themselves detect that the root target is a multipath disk and automatically ensure the correct device name is used instead of the UUID.
