Bug Description
This is a bug in the installer.
The way I typically install is to mount the iso, copy the contents to a partition (say /mnt/installer) and edit grub to boot /mnt/installer/
It seems that the installer tries to set up the partition as a mount point but this fails because it is already mounted. The only way to continue with the installation is to select "dontuse" for the appropriate partition.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
Since ubiquity is not designed to work like this, it's not realy a bug, so i mark it invalid for now. Perhaps a better way now is to create a live usb, or have a tool who can make a similar "live folder" and boot on it. Feel free to revert back this to new, and explain exactly what could be the better way to improve the use of ubiquity for you.
