Is this on 1.12 or HEAD ? I do recall a bug in the partition-open
bitmap in the disk layer that I'm pretty sure I fixed in HEAD, but
may not have fixed in 1.12. It is possible there is an issue there,
it is worth checking out.
It's on HEAD. I just booted with last night's snapshot and the problem
is the same, so it doesn't seem to matter whether other partitions on
the same disk are mounted or not.
