Copy an image to an SD card

On Windows

• Download and install Win32 Disk Imager
• Plug your SD card in
• Copy the raspberry-latest.img file to your SD card using Win32 Disk Imager.

On GNU/Linux, BSD or Mac OS X

• Open a terminal
• Plug your SD card in
• Identify the device name by typing:

sudo fdisk -l

It should be /dev/diskN, where N is a number, or /dev/sdX, where X is a letter.

• Copy the image by typing:

sudo dd bs=1M if=/path/to/your/raspberry-latest.img of=/your/device/name

Do not forget to change /path/to/your/raspberry-latest.img and /your/device/name with the appropriate values.

The command may take a few minutes, then your SD card will be ready to use. :-)
