Backup a #pizero to Disk

This guide assumes you're using a Mac, an SD card and the disk mounts at /dev/disk2

List disks

Find the disk...

diskutil list

Look for the disk that matches the size of the SD card you put into the card slot. Again, we're going to assume it landed at /dev/disk2

Now unmount it...

diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2

Copy from SD to your machine

sudo dd bs=1m if=/dev/rdisk2 of=rpi-w.img

Copy from your machine to SD

sudo dd bs=1m if=rpi-w.img of=/dev/rdisk2
