Same happened to me. Not sure if you'd call this the 'root' partition or not though: I was unmounting the left-most partition, which holds the main NTFS windows (C) partition. Nothing even about any Ubuntu partition. So it wasn't the Ubuntu-root partition in that sense.

Seems like after the 1st device scan if it tries to refresh the
partitions by doing another scan, it segfaults. I can open gparted,
do nothing, and tell it to rescan the devices and it segfaults.
