Looking for the thread related to copy .img to internal SD

Hi,

I want to burn a .img to the internal memory : `dd if=Kobo_Aura_H2O.img of=/dev/mmcblko`
I don't know how to do it properly.
Apparently there is an offset of 10MB non allocated.
So my command are :
Code:
sudo fdisk /dev/sdb

Command (m for help): n
Partition type
   p   primary (0 primary, 0 extended, 4 free)
   e   extended (container for logical partitions)
Select (default p): p
Partition number (1-4, default 1): 
First sector (2048-31116287, default 2048): 10240
Last sector, +/-sectors or +/-size{K,M,G,T,P} (10240-31116287, default 31116287): 

Created a new partition 1 of type 'Linux' and of size 14,8 GiB.
Command (m for help): t
Selected partition 1
Hex code or alias (type L to list all): 0b
Changed type of partition 'Linux' to 'W95 FAT32'.
Command (m for help): w
Then what should I do?
Since it's not enough..

Now it's working.
I believe what was important was block size 32kb in the dd:
Code:
dd if=kobo.img of=/dev/sdb3 bs=32k
And also the fact that you have to dd on the 3rd partition afterward else well it overwritten
