 dmsetup create rules /etc/udev/rules.d/65_dmsetup.rules
when the image create and reboot, you can´t access to devices, because the
devices don´t load the partitions, in my case i have 3 SATA HDD, only one
loaded the partitions, the other are like /dev/sda and /dev/sdc the work
devices /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb3, when i remove 2 devices and only i
leave one, the system works nicely.

/dev/sda are the operating system, Linux.
/dev/sdb are data files
/dev/sdc are Windows OS

/dev/sdb are loaded correctly all times,  with 3, 2 or 1 HDD, i test that,
but the other two one it´s a Samsung and the other Western Digital, both
don´t load the partitions, but appear on dmesg the partitions, when i remove
dmsetup and upgrade the initrd images, the rules of dmestup
/etc/udev/rules.d/65_dmsetup.rules was removed and the system start to
booting normally with all devices.

When the dmsetup are installed and you have more than 1 device the
images with dmsetup don´t boot, the only way to boot up the system it´s
disconnecting all HDD and it´s works, i think it´s a problem of rules
because udev load nicely when i leave only one HDD.

 and the data HDD works every time, so if that works every time and the
other two don´t, but if i leave the OS Linux HDD who was don´t work with the
other both connected, then works.

I don´t understand why all the times only loaded the partitions of the data
HDD, because it´s don´t boot... and that are the second HDD on BIOS...
/dev/sda 80GB   Samsung  "Linux OS" load grub and later don´t load
anything... don´t boot
/dev/sdb 300GB  "Data Files." works every times
/dev/sdc 80GB   Western Digital "Windows OS"

udev recognized all devices... but only load the partitions of "Data Files."
sdb.
Maybe i´m wrong...
tell me if i´m wrong please.
