Not really: you're ripping out the root file system while the full 
system is happily running, then initiating a graceful shutdown 
sequence that's going to try to read from disc.  No distro will 
survive that.

Some bad installers pretend to.  After all: the persistent target 
device is safely unmounted; let's quietly hard-reset the system!

What I've seen the better ones do is display the ‘plz remove USB’ 
message very late in the shutdown sequence, when it's actually 
safe to do so.

Kind regards,

T G-R
