11.10
When calling update-grub (which is also called during upgrades of
kernel packages), the process hangs. In the table of processes, I see a
process called grub-mount trying to mount an ntfs partition. After
manually killing it, it proceeds to my next ntfs partition, and agin
hangs. After
Fresh install of 11.10
os-prober hangs on /usr/lib/os-probes/50mounted-tests repeatedly with many
package installs/removals, kernel upgrades, grub updates, etc.
because of ntfs disagreements about /dev/sda2
I've learned I needed to kill pstree of 50mounted-tests repeatedly to
unfreeze, and
Installing Lucid Lynk 10.04 RC test ISO (on Wubi) from CD or ISO image
mounted on XP, I had the same problem.
Workaround: clicking with the mouse, moving the window or hitting ENTER
again and again let the install complete the task (but very slow!)

The installer hangs at 93% (looking for other OS) the hang continues
periodically until 100% installation is completed. (Ubuntu Lynx rebooted
then works fine)

Are you sure, and if so how can you be sure? It seems more likely that
you have some different problem with similar
50mounted-tests just calls blkid -o value -s TYPE /dev/sda2
Note that since util-linux-ng 2.17 you can use low-probe mode (to avoid
/etc/blkid.tab cache) for this task, it means:
blkid -p -o value -s TYPE device
Thanks for the patch.
