Title:
  Lubuntu Calamares install fails if loop0 already in use

Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Using the Lubuntu 20.04 amd64 iso as a live USB:

  To replicate:

  1. edit the boot configuration to include the "toram" option to the linux command
  2. try to install Lubuntu via the graphical installer

  Outcome:
  Calamares halts due to a subprocess error when .run() is called in unpackfs after finalizing partition info (it appears to create the appropriate filesystem and then fail)

  Expected outcome:
  Installation of Lubuntu

  More info:
  I tried to replicate what I believe, based on the calamares log, the subprocess that fails is doing: mounting a squashfs file in /cdrom to a tmp folder. The result is mount complaining that /dev/loop0 is already mounted and exiting with nonzero status.

  Apologies for no verbatim error quoting but the platform I'm failing
  to install on I can only use mouse or keyboard at a time.
