Hi Janina Waw, I've never pulled the USB out during bootcamp so haven't struck that.
I will agree though that the process is bloody slow, I always put that down to my internet connection Possibly you have a corrupt config file somewhere that needs to be removed to allow that USB to be seen again by bootcamp. -----Original Message----- From: 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] Sent: Saturday, 9 December 2017 5:23 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: podcast on installing windows with bootcamp accessibly Hi, Simon: I guess I'm just shocked at how slow and cumbersome the boot camp process of writing to USB media is. Frankly, I wonder whether there's just a log of old code there than hasn't been updated since the Pleistocene. It's also very unforgiving. On my first try with boot camp I stupidly pulled the USB without first ejecting, and boot camp hasn't forgotten or forgiven me. DiskTool is happy with this stick, I've re formatted and repartitioned it on Linux with no issues, but Boot Camp won't touch it. But, it won't touch it after tyeing up the Airbook with an hour's worth of formatting, downloading, and copying of files. I've googled on this and see I need to go play with scm and nvram. Sheesh.
