CommandLineDiskImager

A command line version of Win32DiskImager

Originally modified for use in PiBakery, CommandLineDiskImager is a command line version of the popular Win32DiskImager program used to write images to removable storage devices, such as SD cards and USB drives.

Currently only writing an image file to a device is supported, you can't read a device to a file just yet. MD5 checks have also not been implemented yet.

To use:

1. Download CommandLineDiskImager.exe from the release page
2. Open an elevated (administrator) Command Prompt.
3. cd into the directory that contains CommandLineDiskImager.exe
4. Run CommandLineDiskImager.exe pathToImageFile driveLetter where pathToImageFile is the path to the image file you want to write, and driveLetter is the single letter of the drive that you want the image written to

Example:

CommandLineDiskImager.exe C:\Users\John\Downloads\raspbian.img G

would write the image file located C:\Users\John\Downloads\raspbian.img G to the drive G:
