Description of problem:
RHEL 5.6 on Microsoft Hyper-V virtual guest displays the following:

   failed to stat() /dev/mapper/no
   failed to stat() /dev/mapper/block
   failed to stat() /dev/mapper/devices
   failed to stat() /dev/mapper/found

RHEL 5.5 works fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Install RHEL 5.6 on a Hyper-V guest.
2.  Install Microsoft Linux Integration Components v2.1.
3.  Reboot
  
Actual results:
Nothing bad appears to be happening and the message appears innocuous.  RHEL 5.5 egrep's out (^no) so the execution block is not executed and the subsequent output from dmraid is suppressed.

Expected results:
Don't display garbage during system startup.
