I saw that this bug is marked as fixed on gparted's bug tracker.

I had a look and try to figure out how the fix was supposed to work. It uses hal-lock to prevent HAL to mount the volume gparted is working on, but obviously, it fails to do so...

I am not *at all* a specialist of HAL, but shouldn't hal-lock lock org.freedeskdesktop.Hal.Device.Volume in addition to or instead of org.freedeskdesktop.Hal.Device.Storage? It seems that the mount/unmount functionality are part of the former...
