you must simply use something like 7zip to decompress teh file. Once decompressed you should have a full img to burn to sd card
Thanks for the replay.
I found the following procedure, is it right?
umount /dev/sdb1
mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/card
tar ‐xzvf filename.tar.gz ‐C /mnt/card
umount /dev/sdb1
I found the solution:
1) download the *.img.xz file
2) unzip with 7zip (or similar) and get the *.img file
3) mount with win32diskimager (or similar)
Thank again!

Lenny,
Thank you for this! I have a quick question that confuses me. How does your image compare to Longsleep's found here: https://www.stdin.xyz/downloads/people/longsleep/pine64-images/ubuntu/
I am trying to determine the most stable image to use for my Pine+ which is in the mail. I already wrote Longsleep's to my SDCard and am wondering if I should replace it with yours.
Thank you.

Both use the same 3.10.65 BSP kernel that longsleep compiled and maintains. The difference is that he is using Ubuntu 16.04 rootfs while I am devoted to the Debian 8 Jessie rootfs. I have also set up 3 different desktop environment images (Mate, XFCE, LXDE) and also the base without Desktop Environment
.Both Longsleep's and mine udpate from longsleep's kernel build (includes the same scripts pine64_update_uboot.sh, pine64_update_kernel.sh, resize_rootfs.sh).
For those who want more bleeding edge go with Ubuntu and Debian is just rock solid in terms of stability but the apps will nto be the most recent versions
