Not really. The filesystem tools and operations are the usual ones, and indeed the image files that operating systems and whatnot are distributed as can be treated as mountable DASD volumes with md. So it's a simple matter of copying a filesystem tree in the very same way that one would do elsewhere, be that pax -r -w or cp -R -p or pcmanfm or whatever.
Things like the RPi Imager are simply bundling up all of the same stuff behind a GUI (and, for example, using their own code to do mostly the same as what newfs_msdos does). These dedicated tools aren't actually doing anything special, really. They're conveniences.
Indeed, the RPi Imager when built for Linux either simply shells out to run the mount and umount commands directly or palms everything off to UDisks2. On MacOS it's likewise just palming things off to Disk Arbitration.

After my Raspberry Pi SD was bricked by a power failure, I finally have a fresh system running again with AdGuard.
I should get a UPS for it at some point.

@tailscale Got my #RaspberryPi setup as an exit node already! My friend and I use it at school to bypass network restrictions on our devices 🤣

Ende letzter Woche ist Version 32 erschienen - habe sie jetzt mal auf meinem Raspberry Pi installiert und werde ein wenig testen.
GroĂźe Neuerungen gab es ja nicht, aber manchmal sind es die kleinen Funktionen, die den Alltag erleichtern ...

The Raspberry Pi 500+
Just spoke about it on my podcast.
it was the perfect computer in 2023. Too bad it came out in 2025.

Bueno, ya he alcanzado el siguiente gran hito con mi sistema de domĂłtica de caldera.
El controlador de la caldera ya tiene relĂ© para dar la orden de arranque a la caldera, como harĂa un termostato tradicional. Y no solo eso, ya puedo accionar el relĂ© (en manual) desde el servidor, os lo muestro en el vĂdeo.
He integrado además una lógica de bloqueo de seguridad. Esta bloquea el controlador de la caldera temporalmente si detecta 2 arranques seguidos en muy poco tiempo, previniendo que esta de joda por un comportamiento errático.
Dentro del circuito gordo que estoy haciendo para la caldera, el sistema tambiĂ©n integrará una parada de emergencia, que dejará al relĂ© sin energĂa y, por tanto, sin poder arrancar la caldera.
El siguiente gran paso es la lĂłgica de control de temperatura

I've never bothered with special software to write TF cards, myself. I just gpart them and and use dd; or newfs and then mount the volumes directly and use pax/cp to just copy stuff in.
Failure at unmount time, presuming that the software is just trying to do an actual unmount, pending writes having flushed pretty quickly presumably, has the smell of card fault or card reader age/fault about it.
I've had to retire at least one old reader because it couldn't handle HC and XC cards.
