Title:
  "d-i partman/unmount_active boolean true" not working

Status in preseed package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The installation with preseed of Ubuntu 16.04 server (and previous
  versions), on a KVM virtual machine keeps showing the message:

  '''
  The installer has detected that the following disks have mounted partitions
  /dev/vda
  Do you want the installer to try to unmount the partitions on this disk before continuing? If you leave them mounted, you will not be able to create, delete or resize partitions on this disk, but you may be able to install to existing partitions there.
  Unmount partitions that are in use?
  '''

  I do have the option:

  d-i partman/unmount_active boolean true

  and
  d-i preseed/early_command string umount /dev/media
  (also tried with)
  d-i preseed/early_command string umount /dev/vda
  d-i preseed/early_command string umount /dev/vda1

  Is this a bug, or am I missing something?
