Hey,

I assume you have a SD card lying around somewhere (and a SD card reader).

First: Download the image of your choice. It might be compressed (file ending in .gz oder .xz or similar),
in which case you need to uncompress it (f.e. with gunzip or unxz).

Next: run `lsblk` once before and once after you have inserted your SD card and compare the outputs to identify
the block device (probably something like /dev/mmcblkX - where X would most likely be 0).

Now you are ready to go: Flash the image to your SD card by running

sudo dd if=IMAGE_YOU_HAVE_DOWNLOADED.img of=/dev/mmcblkX bs=4M

You should pay attention that you provide the previously identified device under "of=..."

Finally you should resize the partition on your SD card with f.e. `sudo gparted` (you should be able to find some tutorials on resizing with gparted - and it's probably easier because it has a nice GUI).

Hope that helps
