[Bug 1004243] Re: multipath installs not working

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

For documentation purposes only.

The 14.04.0 and 14.04.1 ISO images ship with the problematic multipath-udeb (0.4.9-3ubuntu7.0).
The 14.04.2 and later ISO images ship with the fixed/updated one (0.4.9-3ubuntu7.2).
Any 14.04.x netboot install does download  the fixed/updated one (0.4.9-3ubuntu7.2).

That said, one can still use the 14.04.0/14.04.1 ISO images to do a multipath install
if he can download & install the fixed multipath udeb, and (re)run 'Detect disks'.

In order to do it, either use a preseed option *or* execute a shell
during the install:

preseed:
  partman/early_command="wget http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/m/multipath-tools/multipath-udeb_0.4.9-3ubuntu7.2_ppc64el.udeb -O /mp.udeb && udpkg -i /mp.udeb && /bin/disk-detect"
  
shell:
  ~ # wget http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/main/m/multipath-tools/multipath-udeb_0.4.9-3ubuntu7.2_ppc64el.udeb
  ~ # udpkg -i multipath-udeb_0.4.9-3ubuntu7.2_ppc64el.udeb
