If the installer won't proceed because it thinks it failed, then maybe you 
can make the partition/mount succeed on some other device (without 
changing the existing partitions, if any), then when d-i isn't looking, 
unmount it and mount your real target instead? (I've no experience of 
aranym, so I don't know whether there are any emulated devices that might 
be used for this.)
