The other solution is by installing the multipath-tools-boot package, which activate all multupathing stuff in initramfs (beware to regenarate it if you modifiy your /etc/multipath.conf file). => I sugest you to rename your multipath devices with the alias option in multipath.conf, and use that name in fstab, more stable name.
