Description Arvin Schnell 2008-08-20 12:48:18 UTC
When calling the multipath module during installation it wants
to install the packages multipath-tools and device-mapper.

Currently, yast2-multipath does not support installation time calling, we designed it to only work in an installation accomplished environment at very beginning.
If there is strong appetition to call yast2-multipath during system installation, a FATE entry is appreciated.

BTW, could you please to tell me how to call yast2-multipath during installation ? I never tried that.
Comment 4 Arvin Schnell 2008-09-11 12:36:34 UTC
yast2-multipath can be called from the expert-partitioner as requested in
fate #304483. This implies that it can be called during installation (which
is unfortunately not mentioned explicitly).
Comment 5 Lukas Ocilka 2008-09-12 12:03:14 UTC
Fixed multipath to check and install packages only if

   (Mode::normal() && Stage::normal())

yast2-multipath-2.17.0 (newly in SVN)
