here is some text

Usage: mount -V : print version
mount -h : print this help
mount : list mounted filesystems
mount -l : idem, including volume labels
So far the informational part. Next the mounting.
The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'.
Details found in /etc/fstab may be omitted.
mount -a [-t|-O] ... : mount all stuff from /etc/fstab
mount device : mount device at the known place
mount directory : mount known device here
mount -t type dev dir : ordinary mount command
Note that one does not really mount a device, one mounts
a filesystem (of the given type) found on the device.
One can also mount an already visible directory tree elsewhere:
mount --bind olddir newdir
or move a subtree:
mount --move olddir newdir
One can change the type of mount containing the directory dir:
mount --make-shared dir
mount --make-slave dir
mount --make-private dir
mount --make-unbindable dir
One can change the type of all the mounts in a mount subtree
containing the directory dir:
mount --make-rshared dir
mount --make-rslave dir
mount --make-rprivate dir
mount --make-runbindable dir
A device can be given by name, say /dev/hda1 or /dev/cdrom,
or by label, using -L label or by uuid, using -U uuid .
Other options: [-nfFrsvw] [-o options] [-p passwdfd].
For many more details, say man 8 mount .

the info you provided is mostly mount usage info. it would be nice if you could provide more information.

maybe you can use script to generate a log or run the install.sh with bash -x.

umount "$mountpoint_ubuntu"

Now the install is in progress

Hi,
can someone explain to me why the install script tries to boot
the system. I don't understand what happens there and
don't know what to do. The host system then stop working.
Or do I have to wait some amount of time?

I am not sure I understand what you mean by 'boot the system.'

The installation process has a series of steps that are executed on the target system (ARM achitecture), so it uses a chroot and qemu to run arm binaries inside the chroot cage while installing on a x86 box.

I see a ubuntu bootscreen on my hostsystem with boot progress:
..... [ok]
..... [ok]
Then it stops and I don't see any progress.
