 Abort check media file (as suggested by Thomas Schmitt)
 -------------------------------------------------------
+A run of xorriso -check_media can show very slow progress if
+the media causes many read errors. 
 
-There is a difference between creating (touching) abort check 
-media file (which by default is /var/opt/xorriso/do_abort_check_media,
-and is not installed by the xorriso package, but the filepath could be 
-changed via passing -check_media abort_file=some_file_path),
-and a xorriso run with -check_media option aborted with Ctrl+C.
-A run of -check_media can show very slow progress if the media produces 
-lots of read errors. The file do_abort_check_media can be touched to end 
-such a check run prematurely. This is to prefer over Ctrl+C, especially 
-if the -check_media run copies data blocks from media to hard disk.
+To stop that gracefully, an abort check media file could be
+created (by default /var/opt/xorriso/do_abort_check_media),
+see touch(1), to end such a check run prematurely. 
 
+Abort happens if the mtime of abort media file is younger than
+the start time of the xorriso -check_media run.
+
+This is preferable over hitting Ctrl+C, especially if the 
+-check_media run copies data blocks from media to hard disk.
+
+The file location of the abort media file could be tweaked by 
+-check_media abort_file=path option, thus default abort check 
+media file is not installed by the xorriso package.
