Total Noob. Need help booting from SD
#17
Balena Etcher ????? how can you use etcher on a non-working computer??
I am not sure, I don't think there is an arm version of etcher
Most people, after a little experience, use dd,, just be carefull
something like
xzcat someImage.xz |dd of=/dev/sd bs=1M status=progress
(replace /dev/sd with right /dev/mmcblkX,,, X= 1 OR 2)
uname -a will tell you what is booted,, id OR whoami will tell your permissions
Must be root to edit etc/shadow, to fix your forgotten password
