How to force dd to operate to install netbsd ?

Hello,

My image is here:

root@generic:~ # dd if=/dev/da0 of=/dev/mmcsd0 count=196608 ; sync ; reboot
dd: /dev/mmcsd0: Operation not permitted

but it fails

Any idea welcome to force dd to operate?

try

sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16
read man 4 geom

0x10 (allow foot shooting)
Allow writing to Rank 1 providers. This would, for example,
allow the super-user to overwrite the MBR on the root disk or
write random sectors elsewhere to a mounted disk. The
implications are obvious.

if netbsd-slicing is unknown to freebsd you must write to the partition with an offset corresponding to the correct slice.

Something tells me that your command will make a non bootable SD card.
What are you trying to achieve?
