Hi Joachim, did now the full installation chain in legacy mode (mediawriter - iso - F26 Beta 1.3 build) all worked fine. If You think it's the usb stick, test with F3. If I get problems with one of my usb sticks, I make a new partition table on the stick with gparted, if gparted can not delete a fedora partition, I try a new Fedora install on this stick and interrupt this process, before the new data are written, by doing this afterwards gparted always "repaired" an usb stick which had only a SW corruption and no hardware defect. Kind regards Joerg

This is almost certainly a USB stick problem. I'd just write the image again and maybe it'll fix itself as a transient failure. If not, the try another stick. -- Chris Murphy
