It can take a while to write an image to an SD card, depending on the card speed as well as the size of the disk image. In my testing when writing a 30 GB RetroPie.img disk image file to a 32 GB SD card for use with a CanaKit RaspberryPi, the entire process of writing the image and then validating the SD card took about 1.5 hours, but your mileage may vary. To burn a DMG file, please follow the below steps, 1. Run AnyBurn, then click 'Burn image file to disc'. In such devices, you have to make use of either a flash drive or a memory card with high storage capacity. Further here, you can learn to make bootable SD/SDHC card or USB drive for your Windows or Mac computer. Some of the SD cards or SDHC cards come with high storage sizes and are compatible with almost all the relevant devices.
