# I] Flashing a new SD card
|
||||
# Flashing a new micro-SD card
|
||||
|
||||
The following steps describe how to flash a micro-SD card with the latest version of FunKey-OS. This must be done before switching micro-SD cards inside the console.
|
||||
|
||||
Note: Everything on the micro-SD card will be lost, be sure to save your data.
|
||||
|
||||
# II] Switching SD cards in the FunKey S
|
||||
## Download the latest FunKey-OS image file
|
||||
|
||||
On the FunKey S, the SD card was voluntarily placed against the casing so that it has no degree of liberty and cannot move by accident during the eventful life of a keychain. Removing/changing the SD card was nevertheless designed to be pretty straightforward and only require a standard **Phillips screwdriver (PH0)**. Please follow the steps below carefully.
|
||||
Get the latest "***FunKey-rootfs-x.y.z.img***" SD card image file directly from [here](https://github.com/FunKey-Project/FunKey-OS/releases/download/FunKey-OS-2.0.0/FunKey-sdcard-2.0.0.img) or from the bottom of the latest release page in the "assets" section:

## Flash the micro-SD card with balenaEtcher
|
||||
|
||||
- Download and install balenaEtcher for Windows/Mac OS/Linux from <a href="https://www.balena.io/etcher/" target="_blank">balena.io</a>.
|
||||
|
||||
- Run balenaEtcher and click on "Flash from file" to select the FunKey-OS image file
|
||||
|
||||
- Insert the micro-SD card in your computer and select the SD card drive (balenaEtcher should automatically detect it for you)
|
||||
|
||||
- Finally, click **Flash**
|
||||
|
||||
- You'll see a progress bar. Once complete, **make sure the flashing was successful, otherwise retry to flash the SD card**. The program will automatically unmount the SD card so it's safe to remove it from your computer.
