+=== mmcblk0 Imaging ===
+
+If the Desktop/Laptop being used to flash the microSD device shows up as /dev/mmcblk0 then it will act slightly different than the standard storage device (/dev/sda).
+
+Follow the below example and adjust as necessary:
+{{{
+DEVICE=/dev/mmcblk0
+printf "2048,,L,,\n" | sudo sfdisk --force --unit S ${DEVICE}
+sudo mkfs.ext4 ${DEVICE}p1
+sudo mount ${DEVICE}p1 /mnt/disk
+sudo tar -C /mnt/disk -xvf rootfs.tar.bz2
+sudo umount /mnt/disk
+}}}
