Partman hangs during install when SD card inserted

[David Wetta]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

When installing UNR 9.10 RC from a USB stick to an SD card on my EeePC 701 G Surf, ubiquity/partman locks up immediately when I have an SD card inserted. It will ask me before launching partman if I want to unmount the SD filesystem, but whether I say yes, no or manually unmount it before installing, partman locks up.

When I reboot with no SD card, partman acts just fine. I don't see any meaningful errors (dmesg/syslog/messages or partman).

9.10 reached end of life some time ago, do you still see this problem on 12.04+?
