manuti Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Is possible, in future release, to switch from .7z to another format directly compatible with Etcher? Like .zip, .gz, .bz2 or .xz Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Etcher will improve and we must upgrade to SSL on download server before making any changes ... Further reasons: - except .7 and .zip -> you can't add anything, security issue - multi core compression with more files = 7z - zip: no multicore - .gz .bz2 and .xz = single file only I hope I did not mixed up anything ...

manuti Posted November 24, 2016 Author Share Posted November 24, 2016 Thanks, I also posted in Etcher github.com asking about supporting .7z files maybe having this solution is the correct way to save time flashing SD cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
