Is the same DD command appropriate for writing EMMC and SD cards
#1
I have written several SD cards and they all work from software on other machines. I have written images from SD card to emmc and had it work. Now I want to back up my emmc to an SD card and be able to boot from it.  Can I have DD read from the emmc device and write to the SD device and get that?
