Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-disk-utility
When trying to unmount an internal partition, ie one defined in fstab, palimpsest reports something along the lines of: Error unmounting: umount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: umount: only root can unmount UUID=b40a9324-52c8-4733-a460-ac5648da5d06 from /g I would expect palimpsest to trap this error and then prompt for admin privileges and to retry, in the same way it prompts for your password if you ask it to format a drive.
