--dtb beaglebone --enable-systemd --bbb-flasher \
--bbb-old-bootloader-in-emmc

This is the below tarred up…

That’s the file being used…

drwxr-xr-x

Because in the wheezy erra, we had 3 default images…

We have 5 in the Jessie erra… I should update that script as it’s behind.

Yes, setup_sdcard can also write to the sdcard directly --mmc /dev/sdb

No, not with dd directly.. With another tool called "pv" indirectly..
Use google.com to look it up, but it's not accurate as it'll say 100%
yet, sync is still running in the background..

Recent versions of dd have 'status=progress' which does give an indication
of the transfer. It also suffers from the same problem - reporting 100%
whilst the sync is still taking place.
