Got today's .img

Tried following the wiki to the letter.

I am almost positive I am doing something wrong here :)

I do *sudo umount /dev/sdd

*I do *sudo dd bs=4M if=quantal-desktop-armhf+omap4.img of=/dev/sdd ; 
sudo sync

*It looks like it's doing something - terminal tells me it's done something.

If I try to just boot the image on the card without worrying about 
installing it - left hand board led lights up only.


File manager tells me there is exactly nothing on the card.

Gparted tells me that there now no partitions on the card.

Now - what I am not sure of is whether I have other bugs on this 12.10 
system I run causing all this lol
