This tutorial describes how to flash the system image to a MicroSD card.

Download Image​

Visit the Downloads page and choose the appropriate image:

  • Ubuntu 22.04 LTS — Recommended for most use cases
  • Debian 12 — Lightweight option
  • Android 13 — If Android environment is needed

Flashing Tool​

We recommend balenaEtcher (cross-platform, easy to use):

Windows / macOS​

  1. Download balenaEtcher
  2. Open the app, click Flash from file, and select the image file
  3. Click Select target and choose the MicroSD card
  4. Click Flash! to start

Linux​

# Find the SD card device name (usually /dev/sdX or /dev/mmcblkX)
lsblk

# Flash (replace /dev/sdX with your actual device)
sudo dd if=myproduct-ubuntu-22.04.img of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress
sudo sync
Warning

Make sure you select the correct target device. This operation will erase all data on the target device.

Verify Flash​

After flashing, you can verify by checking the MD5:

md5sum myproduct-ubuntu-22.04.img

Next step: First Boot
