Create the disk image, where sdX is the name of the flash drive (probably it will be sdb or sdc). An easy way to find out the device name of the flash drive is to enter the command:
#+BEGIN_SRC: bash
ls /dev/sd*

#+BEGIN_SRC: bash
sudo apt-get install u-boot-tools dosfstools git-core kpartx wget parted
