Command line script to flash SD card images of any kind. Note that for some devices (e.g. Raspberry Pi), at the end of the flashing process the tool tries to customize the SD card e.g. it configures a hostname or WiFi. And with a cloud-init enabled image you can do much more like adding users, SSH keys etc.

Features

  • Download a compressed SD card from the internet or from S3
  • Use a local SD card image, either compressed or uncompressed
  • Show progress bar while flashing (if pv is installed)
  • Wait until a SD card is plugged in
  • Optional set the hostname of this SD image
  • Copy an optional custom file into the boot partition of the SD image
