Hi Michael,

please check if you are using the newest version of this file.
In 2017 I've added some code to ignore the USB stick (git show 0e071f2ec8e6be1)

https://github.com/faiproject/fai/blob/master/lib/fai-disk-info

    > As expected, /sys/block/sd*/removable reads '1' for the USB stick and

Some people may want to install to a removable disk, for e.g. a micro
SD card.
