This is under development...

Prerequisites

You are going to need:

  • To have and SD-Card reader/writer
  • To download an SD-Card image to use
  • To be able to expand a compressed SD Card image file (.xz)
  • Be able to identify the Windows device designator assigned to the SD Card. (Like E:)
  • Write the SD Card image file (.img) to the SD Card

    Software Tools

  • 7zip is free. You can use it to expand a .xz file. Here is a link: [7-Zip Project]
  • Win32 Disk Imager is also free. You can use it to write the .img file to your SD-Card. Here is a link: Win32 Disk Imager

    Step-by-Step

    Is it possible to write a non-blank media with Win32 disk imager? I'm having trouble
