| Feb 4, 2015 at 18:37 | comment | added | Volker Siegel | Regarding the recent edit adding the section starting "Also You can do the following:" - it looks at this should be an answer - could you please add that as an answer and edit it out of the question again? (But I'm not sure it can be easily separated, because there were partly answering edits before - maybe it's hard to separate - in this case, an answer with a short summary of the edits refering there for details would be good) | |

| Mar 13, 2013 at 0:41 | comment | added | Luis Machuca | Changing max_sectors manually for every device I plug does help a lot hence I'm trying to genericize the solution. Also yes, live CDs do work wonders! | |
| Mar 13, 2013 at 0:25 | comment | added | frostschutz | Does the max_sectors actually help? No point finding a way to automate this setting if it does not actually resolve the issue. | |

| Mar 12, 2013 at 23:47 | comment | added | vonbrand | In Fedora, using largeish pendrives (up to 16GiB) and a 350GiB hard disk in an enclosure have never given me such problems. Check that the hardware (pendrives, USB port) are OK (might as well use a "non-recent", i.e., Debian ;-) LiveCD. | |
