Description

Bootable SD cards and USB drives can be written from OS image files with a safety-focused command-line workflow.

This tool writes directly to removable drives and can erase the selected device. Double-check the target disk before flashing, especially on systems with multiple USB or storage devices connected.

This Git package follows development changes, so it is better for testing newer Etcher behavior than for conservative production use.
