Description Mohua Li 2011-03-09 06:53:46 UTC
Description of problem:
n interactive install, we always use multipath to manage the device, it means user always see /dev/mapper/* intstead /dev/sd*, but in auto install, we actually could specify both /dev/sd*(local disk), /dev/mapper/*, it's quite confuse, we need to be consistent,

autoinstall is considered an advanced use case.  It was intentional that we added the ability to specify /dev/sdX or /dev/mapper/<wwid>.  Internally, we translate all devices to /dev/mapper/<wwid> and after installation, everything should be using the /dev/mapper device.  We also provide storage_init=scsi storage_init=usb, etc. for autoinstall which aren't available in the UI
