At least some USB drives with a write protect switch (e.g. Netac U335)
could report "MEDIUM NOT PRESENT" for a while if a write protect is
enabled. Do not stop the initialization attempts after getting this,
and the initialization will be successful - likely on a 2nd attempt.

SeaBIOS boot log with this patch applied and Netac U335 drive ("USB
MSC Drive Netac OnlyDisk 1100") with a write protect switch enabled
