Hi Gábor,

Yes that could be a viable option. We could allow the user to launch
again the install command, but we cannot allow him to go back to the
installer menu and resume the process wherever.

Or, we could keep the menu active but remove some critical steps such as
"partitioning" that require umounting/closing.

What do you think?

Thanks,

Mathieu
