shaman237 0 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hi, I tried to download CLI-ubuntu and Desktop-Debian archives, then i did like described in manual: sudo dd if=Armbian_4.5_Cubox-i_Debian_jessie_3.14.54_desktop.raw of=/dev/rdisk2s1 bs=1048576 or sudo dd if=Armbian_4.5_Cubox-i_Ubuntu_trusty_3.14.54.raw of=/dev/disk2s1 bs=1048576 When i try to use that on my cubox i-pro - nothing happend: TV connected via hdmi and i see only black window I had ubuntu 12 installation on the same sd-card, i have backup of it and i can restore from backup (everything works fine). But how i can use the new one kernel, created here? Ps. sd-card: 4Gb, cubox-i pro, mac os. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zador.blood.stained 764 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 It seems like you are writing image to first partition of your sd card, but you need to write to disk itself, /dev/disk2 or /dev/rdisk2 rather then /dev/disk2s1 or /dev/rdisk2s1, if I correctly understood Mac OS disk device naming scheme.

Rui Ribeiro 25 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Seems you are using OS/X....zdor is right on, please do use /dev/rdisk? and not /dev/disk?. The difference is astounding, it can mean the difference between taking 4 or 20-40 minutes to write a MicroSD card, and besides your saving them on the basis of less wear and tear.

tkaiser 1642 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I always do it that way: https://www.bananian.org/download#os_x In fact the last step is sudo dd if=... of=/dev/rdisk? bs=1m && diskutil eject disk? && say "Whoot, There It Is" 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
