Making amicroSDHC
The image can be directly written to a microSDHC using a utility likedd,but we preferddrescue(from thegddrescue,forexample:
sudo apt-get install gddrescue xz-utils unxz ubuntu-mate-16.04.2-desktop-armhf-raspBerry-pi.img.xz sudo ddrescue -D --force ubuntu-mate-16.04.2-desktop-armhf-raspBerry-pi.img /dev/sdx
The microSDHC may be presented on any/dev/sdXso use the commandlsblktocheck.
If you prefer a graphical tool we recommend usingGNOME Disksand theRestore disk Image…option,which natively supports XZ compressed images.
sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility
