I am a bit of a n00b with all these software. I just prefer using the dd command to burn the sd cards.
The details of using the dd command are all over the internet.

Hi Ashhar,
??????????????? The dd is sometimes called disk destroyer if you don't know your machines layout, for example I use dd bs=4M if=image of=/dev/sd# status=progress && sync, I like to see the progress of the copy.
