I'm fine using any option to get unstable installed on this machine, but the boot process for arm is confusing to this long term (18 years now) debian user.
You should be able to use dd much like you were imaging a hard drive on an x86 system, the /dev devices are just mmcblkX instead of sdX. The following should work:
Code:
dd if=<complete_image path> of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M status=progress
