I have a Raspberry PI SD Card which I need to format but before I want to make an image of it. Unfortunate, all the programs are all for windows. Does any body know about a piece graphical software for this. (Do not mention dd)

Perhaps you could use the Disks program in Linux Lite. Menu > Settings > Disks. Highlight your SD card on the left. Then use the More actions icon in the upper right. Under it will be an option to Create Disk Image.
You can also use the Archive Manager. Menu > Accessories > Archive Manager. From the Archive Manager menu click on Archive and then New. Select your SD card, and then change the default extension from .zip to .iso.

If you have windows already on board try this.

Hello!
Redo Backup should be able to back up your entire SD card quite nicely. It is a LiveCD/USB that's Lubuntu-based, and plays quite nicely in a mutiboot USB envoironment. I use it HERE all the time - every time I need to back up an entire drive... 73 DE N4RPS Rob ![[Image: EtYqOrS.png%5D]](http://imgur.com/EtYqOrS.png%5D) A gun in your hand is worth more than a whole police force on the phone.

I do not have Windows on the Raspberry Pi and also I only want software not live boot. I also said that I do not want to use DD.

Not a Raspberry expert, but this is a bit read error. You have a 32bit and 64bit part on the same sd. Which linux lite disks utility, and numerical release version are you using 32 or 64?

I don't think the disk utility in LL2.8 32 bit has the 64bit read, lseek64(3) i think. The upgrade bugfix is in Ubuntu 15.10 and above somewhere, but you may not be able to avoid the terminal to add it.

This is a decent tutorial. I know you want GUI software, but without Windows, you will have a problem finding any because linux and pi are geared to the terminal for what you want to do. This tutorial is pretty succinct. I think you could get through it.
