I'm trying to install RasPlex for my Raspberry Pi 3. When I downloaded the file to flash, it came in a .bin file and the instructions are very weak. So I now have a .bin file and not a clue on how to flash it to my SD card. How do I flash this bin file to the SD card?

  • Try to give it execution permissions and execute it. sudo +x <yourbinfile.bin>; sudo ./<yourbinfile.bin>.

  • What is "the instructions are very weak"? Perhaps they won't look "week" to someone else, so why not elaborate?
