Status of a 'dd' operation on OS X

 Hi, people!

Just a quick note: Today I had to create a CentOS bootable USB stick. I used to do that on a Linux box, but this time I had to use an OS X one. I checked a few posts online and dd seemed to be available on OS X, so I run something like:

time sudo dd if=CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1503-01.iso of=/dev/disk2 bs=1m

I'm using a very old USB stick and the process was kind of slow. I decided to do the same I used to do on a Linux box and issued the following:

killall -USR1 dd

For my surprise, the dd process just finished suddenly :(

Searching on Google, I found some people saying that USR1 signal doesn't work on OS X, but none mentioned that it interrupts dd!

The proper way to do that on OS X is:

killall -INFO dd

EDIT:
After checking this link, I found out that Ctrl + T on the dd terminal window also do the same on OS X!

 Hope it helps!
