As far as i can tell. you have to use :  Allwinner PhoenixCard Bootable SD-Card Creator which is Windows only.

If you are in Mac just run a Virtual Machine it will work just connect it when it's in Windows mode.

So the short version is, if I'm not running Windows I'm screwed.  Sad
You could rely on the kindness of others, if someone has a microSD the same size as yours that has working Android/RemixOS install on theirs to make a Win32 image for you and that img file can be copied to your SD with the dd command.
