• Run:

      diskutil list
    
  • Review the output. Identify the device for your SD. On mine, it was “disk2”. Substitute 2 (or your digit) for # below.
  • Run:

      diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk#
    
  • Run (this takes a few minutes):

      sudo dd bs=1m if=2017-01-11-raspbian-jessie-lite.img of=/dev/rdisk#
    
  • Create a “ssh” file on the SD card to enable ssh on first boot and un-mount the SD card:

      > /Volumes/boot/ssh
      sudo diskutil eject /dev/rdisk#
