Is there a way to specify the transfer block size in Etcher?
For example, with the Linux dd command, we can specify ‘bs’: dd if=imageName of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
If we can’t specify it, can you tell me what block size we default to?
Thank you.
Hi @tester,
I reached out to the maintainers of Etcher to ask this.
I don’t see an option in Etcher interface to specify the block size. I guess we use the default value of OS. That would be 512 bytes for Linux.
Cheers…
Etcher writes in 1MiB blocks, this is not configurable.
Ok, thank you. I can try this using ‘count’ when I dd off the USB. Thanks again
