sudo dd bs=1m if=<image_path>/ubuntu12-full-image.img

4.4.2. Command line

If you are comfortable with the command line, you can image a card without any
additional software. Run:
diskutil list

Identify the disk (not partition) of your SD card e.g.
disk4
(not
disk4s1
):
diskutil unmountDisk /dev/<disk# from diskutil>
e.g.
diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk4
sudo dd bs=1m if=image.img of=/dev/<disk# from diskutil>
e.g.
sudo dd bs=1m if=2015-02-16-raspbian-wheezy.img
of=/dev/disk4
This may result in an
dd: invalid number '1m'
error if you have GNU
coreutils installed. In that case you need to use
1M
:
sudo dd bs=1M if=image.img of=/dev/<disk# from diskutil>
This will take a few minutes.
4.4.3. Alternative method
Note: Some users have reported issues with using Mac OS X to create SD cards.
These commands and actions need to be performed from an account that has administrator
privileges.

From the terminal run
df -h
