Bug#695116: debian-installer: wheezy b4: hdmedia installer unmounts usb stick
Package: debian-installer
Version: wheezy b4
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i
I am using preseeding, and have created a usbstick exactly as for squeeze (where it works). I have put vmlinuz, initrd, preseed file and iso image in root. During installation, first everything works well: hd-media is mounted, preseed file is found etc. But soon i get error "failed to mount /dev/sdb: Device or resource busy". Trying to mount it manually yields same error. This is no good as I have a late_command in preseed that copies some files from hd-media that need to be on target.
This worked fine in squeeze, with the same physical stick formatted the same way from the same computer (ofcourse replacing files to match wheezy).
