- if a partition is mounted and unseen by parted -> skip the disk
"Skip" means that the disk will not be visible nor usable for
partitioning.
For manual partitioning:
- lock the mounted partition
"Lock" means that the partition is visible but altering or deleting
it or creating a new partition table on its disk is prohibited.
I updated the merge request [1] to implement the above.
Update to also cope with GNU/Hurd partition device node naming scheme:
<https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/partman-base/-/merge_requests/15>
For automatic partitioning using an entire disk:
- skip the disk with a mounted partition
"Skip" means that the disk is not added to the available disk list.
This will require extra changes in partman-auto, and maybe partman-auto-*.
<https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/partman-auto/-/merge_requests/26>
partman-auto-* need to be adjusted too. I will open MRs after this one
is merged.
