burning Android SD image with Ubuntu... - Jessica Spongekipper - 09-16-2016

I have a query re Android SD backup. The system is on a 32 GB disk & I have it set up basically as I would like it. I want to create an image file for backup. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and would like to use the Disks utility ( Create disk image...)

This start well but after a short interval it all goes pear-shaped & I get an error.

See attachment.

Any reason why this should not work ?
I suspect I may have overlooked something blindingly obvious but in my defence it is early & I have not had my first cup of coffee yet.

Yes, I could use dd.

But I burned the image with Disks so I see no reason not to make the backup the same way.   [Image: smile.png]
