I had the same problem, but just on my 32bit Rawhide. Indeed, those
two packages (device-mapper-multipath and
device-mapper-multipath-libs) were installed on the x86_64 Rawhide.

So, the solution/work-around is simple:

# rpm -e device-mapper-multipath-libs-0.4.9-22.fc18.x86_64
device-mapper-multipath-0.4.9-22.fc18.x86_64

# dracut


That time, the initramfs should be created. Just check that it has
been created. For instance:

# ls -l /boot/initramfs-3.5.0-0.rc0.git3.1.fc18.x86_64.img


Then, of course, you have to update the Grub2 configuration, by adding
the following lines to /etc/grub2.cfg:

<tab>echo    'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
<tab>initrd  /initramfs-3.5.0-0.rc0.git3.1.fc18.x86_64.img


Note that, if you do not have a dedicated /boot partition, you should add
the /boot prefix in the above line.

That's basically it.

Regards

Denis
