sdb: spurious uevent, path already in pathvec error while installing redhat 7


Hi,

I am getting the below error while installing Redhat 7 on my laptop.
dracut-initqueue[700]: Warning: Could not boot.
dracut-initqueue[700]: Warning: /dev/root does not exist
Starting Dracut Emergency Shell....
Warning: /dev/root does not exist
Generating "/run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt"

Entering emergency mode. Exit the shell to continue.
Type "journalctl to view system logs.
You might want to save "run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt" to a USB stick or /boot after mounting them and attach it to a bug report.

dracut:/#


When I tried journalctl can see the error message
sdb: spurious uevent, path already in pathvec

Could some one please help me.

This:

Code:
sdb: spurious uevent, path already in pathvec
comes from multipath, but if you are installing this on a normal laptop, not sure why multipath is running. Maybe try to disable it a boot time, would help.

You could always ask RH, since you are presumably paying them for support ...
But disabling multipath should work.
