My hardware is DS4300 turbo. I have problems running kpartx from  
multipath-tools 0.4.8. It doesn't detect all my partitions... running  
on "dmsetup ls --target multipath".

So, if I install lvm2 I do not need device-mapper package to be  
installed in order to use multipath-tools, right?

Thx for your answer
