Also, if you want to clone an SD, start by plugging the source SD and then running

sudo dd if=/dev/disk2 of=$HOME/Desktop/raspberro.dmg bs=5000000

this will take the first inserted disk and copy to your machine.

Then plug the destination SD in and first run diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2 to unmount it, then run

sudo dd of=/dev/disk2 if=$HOME/Desktop/raspberro.dmg bs=5000000

this will copy the image on your desktop on the plugged in SD.
