JumpDrive not working due to device busy
#1
I'm unable to flash Manjaro to my Pinephone.

I've flashed JumpDrive (pine64-pinephone.img.xz) to a MicroSD card inserted it into my PinePhone (I received the PostMarketOS Edition from last year).
The phone boots fine, and the eMMC flash is detected in my (Ubuntu 20.04) computer.

I'm then trying to flash Manjaro-ARM-plasma-mobile-pinephone-20210807.img.xz to the eMMC flash through USBImager, but it fails with the error "error opening device /dev/sdc: Device or resource busy".

I switched to balenaEtcher but it also fails with an unspecific error.

I think it may be because of the encryption on PostMarketOS, as I'm asked the passphrase to access the driver from either USBImager or balenaEtcher. So I went to Gparted to try to delete the partition and/or clear the encryption part, but it won't allow me to do either. What I could do is format the rootfs partition, but I did not help, and I'm still unable to flash Manjaro.

It looks like I'm the only one with this problem, and I'm stuck right now. Any idea?
