@RomanBeskrovny Yes, gzip counts the number of continuous zeros and stores only that number.

@RomanBeskrovny Thanks. I have corrected the last two commands. Forgot to execute them as root (sudo) and to decompress gzip -cd the image.

@RomanBeskrovny OK, using balenaEtcher. Seems it decompresses out of the box. I'm interested why the last command fails on a MacBook. What's the error message?

@RomanBeskrovny I have done it many times before but haven't tested just this commands I have given here. I will do it now. Maybe I have overseen something. I'm doing it on a laptop with Debian. Maybe you have different versions of gzip and dd with other options?

I've done the last step in another way - I used balenaEtcher app to flash backup.img.gz.

| Mar 22, 2019 at 17:41 | comment | added | romankh3 | unfortunately, I made first step, without bs=4M, because I've got an error "dd: bs: illegal numeric value". After that, the last command wasn't right for me... Have you tried to do it? | |
