Sorry, misinterpreted the question.

SAN booting should work out-of-the-box with HBA card, but I not a multipath
for the /boot disk . But I think that it is common Linux defect (multipath
is a daemon, not a driver, so it cause a lot of inconveniences like this, in
exchange to some flexibility).

My previous response was about iSCSI booting.
