This service waits a long time for detection of all devices. As a result, a system booting is significantly prolonged. + +As multipath support is only necessary for installations in data centers or other enterprise setups, `device-mapper-multipath` is not needed. Therefore the Fedora workstation livecd will no longer contain `device-mapper-multipath` package. + +Users which need `device-mapper-multipath` are advised to use the server installation.
