The above says that the system thinks your box is multipath but the
other drives are not showing up correctly. You will need to provide a
lot more information for anyone to be able to help diagnosis this for
you:

1. What is the build system
2. What kind of drives/drive controller is it
3. What is the rest of the kickstart that might tell it that it is multipath?
4. What are the pxe/uefi boot options in case that is telling it to
try and probe for multipath that doesn't exist.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Flame wars in
sci.astro.orion. I have seen SPAM filters overload because of Godwin's
Law. All those moments will be lost in time... like posts on  BBS...
time to reboot.
