If a terminal window has navigated to the mounted drive, Rescuezilla v1.0.5 cannot unmount it. Given that trying to backup a mounted drive drive is a very dangerous operation that may produce very bad outcomes, Rescuezilla should really raise a fatal error message asking to user to ensure all drives are unmounted before proceeding any further.

Just like Redo Backup v1.0.4, attempting to backup an unmountable drive produces a cryptic 'error exit' message for each partition. This situation can be triggered more easily with Rescuezilla v1.0.5 as it adds one-click mounting of drives using the file manager and the right-click menu ability to open a terminal.
