[Bug 1860957] Re: Tried installing Ubuntu with ZFS auto partitioning. Crashed

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Thanks for your report.

Repartitioning failed because the ESP partition of the target disk was
already mounted:

----------------

Jan 27 06:17:57 ubuntu ubiquity: Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ... FAILED
Jan 27 06:17:57 ubuntu ubiquity: 
Jan 27 06:17:57 ubuntu ubiquity: This disk is currently in use - repartitioning is probably a bad idea.
Jan 27 06:17:57 ubuntu ubiquity: Umount all file systems, and swapoff all swap partitions on this disk.
Jan 27 06:17:57 ubuntu ubiquity: Use the --no-reread flag to suppress this check.

----------------

05efi: debug: /dev/nvme0n1p1 is a FAT partition (mounted by GRUB)
