That's because the "> /dev/sdb" was parsed and handled by your user shell (redirection is handled by the shell before running the command). sudo only got "xzcat Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-20-1-sda.raw.xz" as arguments. You should be able to quote what you want actually passed to sudo: sudo "xzcat Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-20-1-sda.raw.xz > /dev/sdb" -- Chris Adams <li...@cmadams.net> -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
