During 11.1 devel via https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397816 I setup device mapper on one system in order to access all actual partitions while using ata_piix driver. Now on that system I have a 2.6.29 kernel, so no longer need dm_linear. So far, I've had no luck reversing the process. Neither subject command seems to produce any impact. I ran both kpartx -d /dev/sda and activate_device_mapper -d /dev/sda before running mkinitrd, and still the resulting initrd features dm_linear and kpartx. /etc/udev/rules.d/dm_linear.rules did get a fresh write, while /etc/udev/rules.d/70-kpartx.rules did not. I blacklisted dm_linear & kpartx in /etc/modprobe.conf.local too, but that didn't help either. Short of a fresh install, how do I eliminate them, and go back to mounting directly to /dev/sda* devices instead of /dev/dm-* devices?
