[Bug 1004243] [NEW] multipath installs not working

[dann frazier]

Public bug reported:

I started up a precise/netboot install using debian-
installer_20101020ubuntu136 and disk-detect/multipath/enable=true and
found that multipath support didn't appear to be working. That is to
say, both paths appeared as separate disks in the installer, and no
device-mapper devices were instantiated.

I dropped to a shell and discovered that /sbin/multipath fails to run:

BusyBox v1.18.5 (Ubuntu 1:1.18.5-1ubuntu4) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ # multipath
multipath: symbol lookup error: /lib/libmultipath.so.0: undefined symbol: dlopen

Note: this also seems to be the case in oneiric, though oneiric also has
a bug where it does not appear to have the dm-multipath module available
at install time.
