Ooops!

... looks like the hook should be called "partition.MULTIPATH.source" as
a hook is called "for a task" - as the FAI Guide states -, which
translates to: The hook must be called "taskname.CLASS[.source]"

And it _is_ in the FAI Guide explicitly, too:
"The file name of a hook consists of a task name as a prefix and a class
name, separated by a dot."

Maybe we could add a list of available tasks (and therefore deducted
hook names) to chapter 7.11, so people with a hard time reading
documentation details will grasp that more easily? Alternatively, a
reference to available task names in the FAI Guide would be good at
least.

Sorry for the noise!
