##dd-monitor.sh ###A script which shows the status of SD card image reads and writes
These are some scripts that I have written to make copying and writing SD card images easier. What you do
is take dd-monitor.sh and pass it some simple arguments.
I have mainly written these scripts to make copying and writing my SD card images easier, since I do a lot
of stuff with my Raspberry Pi units. Please note that all of these files must be in the same directory.
Otherwise, dd-monitor.sh will not work. The program pv is required, as well.
- For copying an SD card image to file, use the following command:
dd-monitor.sh read /dev/foo /path/to/sd.img
The argument /dev/foo is the block device for your SD card while /path/to/sd.img is the path to which
you can write your SD card image.
- For writing an SD card image to a file, use the following commnad:
dd-monitor.sh write /dev/foo /path/to/sd.img
The argument /dev/foo is the block device of your SD card while /path/to/sd.img is the SD card image
that you want to write to your SD card.
