            Bug ID: 269862
           Summary: Restart installer :: device is busy hard disk
           Product: Base System
           Version: 13.1-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: davidward@linux.com

I hope I have reported this right.

A bit of an edge case.

If you need to restart the installer (for example bootonly install and the
mirror you picked is down (which happens a lot)), you are presented with a
"Device is busy" error after the partition setup step.

The resolution would be to umount the target disk when the installer is
restarted.

Thank you.
