Ubuntu 11.04 - Error during partition

[Chaitanya]

While installing from USB at one stage during the installation it asks
whether to unmount the ubs disk (not the exact phrase but something likely).
I generally dont unmount it and I have not till now faced any problems as
such.

Thanks & Regards
Chaitanya
