Bug Description
My laptop has two M.2 drives which are part of the same LVM volume group and my root partition is spread across them (as well as some VM partitions).
rpi-imager correctly identifies that one of these should not be overwritten and doesn't offer it as a choice when writing an image, but regards the other as available. Needless to say, the consequences of actually doing this would be pretty severe.
