Indeed, ‘cow-store’ bind-mounts /mnt/tmp (or whatever the target mount point is) to /tmp to make sure we have enough disk space if we need to build things. This was done in commit 0adabad72d58492f08975af0b6b837ebde32a51b in response to a bug report. Is it a problem for the installer? Thanks, Ludo’.
