it's been a long long time since I could copy large amount of data to my usb stick fast in ubuntu, probably since 7.04 or 7.10. (Maybe, just maybe, I can find the time to reinstall old ubuntu versions and test. I'll get back to you if I do).
Recently I wanted to copy 10GB to a 16GB usb stick, from ext4 to fat32. After 30 minutes I got tired and clicked abort, it took some time to abort the operation. Then I transferred the 10GB to a usb hard drive with ntfs (quite quick), logged in to xp (dualboot so same computer) and transferred from the usb hard drive to the usb stick (still in the same usb port) and it didnät take as long as 5 minutes. Sorry to say but it really is depressing. I'll get back to you if I get some real testing done. -- Copying files to USB flash drive is extremely slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541937 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for Fedora. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : registry@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
