Source: debian-installer-utils
Version: 1.147
Severity: normal

I'm hacking together an installer for an rpi4 locally, copying all the
files onto a FAT-formatted USB drive. I also want to do some minor
config in a preseed late_command, so I've modified the initrd to add a
preseed file.

Unfortunately, once I added the preseed file d-i fails in
cdrom-detect. Digging further, I've found that this is because the USB
drive is already mounted on /media. This is caused by the "fetch-url"
command in preseed/preseed_fetch. In fetch-url-methods/file, we call
mountmedia to allow for preseed via USB from netboot - see commit
916a613577c5cd747d15b3d20f16b9518d7d54ea in 2013!!

This mountmedia is not needed in my case, and is what's breaking
things. As a workaround, I've added a preseed early_command for now to
*unmount* /media and all is well. But this code needs changing to not
run mountmedia unconditionally!

We already had a report from Bogdan Veringioiu about this problem back
in 2018... :-( [1]
