Default CANT BURN nookie froyo .img using mac at all?

i cannot get nookie froyo 2.2 to burn to my FRESH 8gb sd card for the life of me. i have the latest version downloaded and i enter in the commands in the terminal

diskutil list

then

diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2 (all volumes unmounted successfully)

then

dd if=nookie-froyo-SDIMAGE_2GB-0.6.8.img of=?dev/disk2 bs=1m

Then i get " no such file or directory?

Am i missing something here because it is driving me nuts and everywhere i look online those are the correct commands that i am to enter into the terminal processes.

I found this, hope it helps. I think you are missing a / before the last dev

dd if=NameOfNookieFroYoImage of=/dev/disk# bs=1m

Two things pop out to me. First is that when you are burning your output file ("of") needs to be
Code:
of=/dev/disk2
, not a question mark. The second is that unless you have already changed directories in Terminal to the one that your nookie-froyo image is in, you need to specify the entire path leading to the file. The easiest way to do this is to type if= then just drag and drop the file into the terminal window. You'll get something like the code below when you do that and it should work just fine.

Code:
craines-MacBook-Pro:sbin craine$ diskutil list
/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *320.1 GB   disk0
   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh HD            319.7 GB   disk0s2
/dev/disk2
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:     FDisk_partition_scheme                        *8.2 GB     disk2
   1:             Windows_FAT_32 boot                    123.3 MB   disk2s1
   2:                      Linux                         485.3 MB   disk2s2
   3:                      Linux                         1.0 GB     disk2s3
   4:             Windows_FAT_32 CM7 SDCARD              6.5 GB     disk2s4
craines-MacBook-Pro:sbin craine$ diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk2
Unmount of all volumes on disk2 was successful
craines-MacBook-Pro:sbin craine$ dd if=/Users/craine/Downloads/cm_encore_full-28.zip of=/dev/disk2

ok i believe it is working because once i put in the last command in terminal it is still sitting there like it is not doing anything so hopefully it is writing it now. i guess we will see but thanks for the info.

That's normal. It will sit there looking like it is doing nothing, but it is actually writing the data to the SD card. When it has finished it will say that it has successfully written x number of blocks.

You need to find/flash a suitable gapps zip.

Ok this will be my project tonight, unfortunately i am having trouble finding the correct steps to go about this using my mac.

1.) i assume that i am still using the same SD CARd that i am booting from and i will have to partition part of the sd card in order to burn the rest of the zip files to it that i will be needing in order to get all of the market? Am i correct in this thinking?

2.) Could anyone send me a link in order to get the correct steps in order to complete.
