[arm-allstar] can't create SD card image

[Eric Vincent]

David,

I had similar problems and I followed the instructions on this site
<https://fossbytes.com/how-to-repair-corrupted-pen-drive-or-sd-card/#:~:text=Right%2Dclick%20on%20CMD%20and,It%20works%20in%20most%20cases.>
and after a couple hours of trial and error, I have saved 2 SD cards.
Try it!

Thanks
Eric
