2.5 Install Error - /dev/sda is busy. Some partition is mounted

[MrArticles]

Solved!

I just saw Andrew's post from earlier this year that NVMe's will not work at this time.

The only drive I have in the system is the onboard SSD. I'm beginning to think that the problem is with the Asus "MB" and BIOS.

If you have more than 1 hard drive in the case perhaps removing one temporarily it might allow the install.

I did not have this issue installing VB 2.5 from a USB drive to an AMD based PC, so it might be related to something else in the system?

Andrew,

I believe this might be something you would need to address. After continuing to hit my head against a brick wall for the last week, I came across the following video on youtube which describes exactly the problem I have been experiencing albeit with a different piece of software. It appears to be a bug with AMD Ryzen and Ubuntu. This is a new build PC and if I can't get it to install I will have to return the components and try something else. However, I am running out of time to do this. The following is the video which explains the problem in detail.

Thank you for your help and the great software!

I'm trying to perform a new install of Vortexbox 2.5 and keep getting the following error message: /dev/sda is busy. Some partition is mounted.

Any help greatly appreciated.
