Instalation on USB3 computer

Sailfish is a wonderful operating system, but the installer is really sh*tty. It does not work on the modern computers at all. I tried Ubuntu 19.04, 18.04.3, 16.04.6, 14.04.6, Debian 10.1, 9.11 and 8.11, but the installer can not handle USB3 connection. In the documentation there is a short mention about possible issues on Ubuntu 18.04, but in reality the installer is useless on modern computers. Year ago I had USB 2.0 hub, now I do not. How am I suppose to find ancient USB 2.0 port? The "solution" to force USB 2.0 mode does not work either. Any ideas? Any workaround?
