Hi Mathieu,
I noticed that partitions created by the installer appear to not be
properly unmounted, at least when running in the context of (gnu tests
install):

However, I’ve added logging in ‘umount-user-partitions’ in (gnu
installer parted), and the installer does seem to unmount partitions
correctly.
Could it be a side effect of the MS_MOVE dance in
1d02052067e04d7dd8fd1ec17557ca02a30b9bcf?
(I’m observing this on ‘wip-installer-tests’, roughly based on
117d8467be232bcc1b0136d04f362d95d975ca95.)
Thanks,
Ludo’.
