Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
The dialog asks us "Would you like the installer to try to unmount these partitions again?"
I expect to be able to answer "yes" or "no". However, I have the options "Go back" and "Continue". See: http://
I think a bit, and decide "Continue" probably means Yes/Retry, but it bumps me back to the previous menu.

Agreed. This is actually a general problem with boolean questions emitted by partman; for some reason ubiquity renders all of them as Continue/Go Back questions. I think this was because many of them were "Go back to the menu and correct errors?" questions. We could probably do better nowadays.
