Hey all,

Just wanted to share an alternative flashing tool/instruction for Raspberry Pi image files. [https://etcher.io/](https://etcher.io/)

It’s cross platform and dead simple. Been using it with my Raspberry Pi builds of RetroPie for almost a year now and it’s been rock solid. Figured would be worth mentioning given how much more technical the [official guide](http://webosose.org/discover/setting/flashing-webos-ose/) was and how it might help some new users/developers.
