Writing an image to the SD card

Writing the image to MicroSD Card by Etcher is recommended.

  • Using a computer with an MicroSD Card reader.
  • Visit etcher.io and download and install the Etcher SD card image utility.
  • Run Etcher and select the image you downloaded.
  • Select the SD card drive. Note that the software may have already selected the right drive.
  • Finally, click Burn to transfer the image to the MicroSD Card. You'll see a progress bar that tells you how much is left to do. Once complete, the utility will automatically eject/unmount the SD card so it's safe to remove it from the computer.
