** Summary changed:

- dmraid disks shown with wrong dev name
+ device-mapper devices shown with wrong dev name

** Description changed:

- The disk utility shows dmraid disks with dev names like /dev/dm-0.
- These names are for internal use only and are not supposed to be shown

+ dmraid disks ) with dev names like /dev/dm-0.  These names are for
+ internal use only and are not supposed to be shown to the user.  It
+ should be showing the /dev/mapper/name instead.
