  • Etcher version:
    1.5.81

  • Operating system and architecture:
    Windows 10 version 1909 (18363.778)

  • Image flashed:
    Yocto created image for Raspberry Pi

  • Do you see any meaningful error information in the DevTools?
    No

WIC support (used by Yocto, OpenEmbedded projects) was added in #2560. By default, Yocto 3.x will create .wic.bz2 files for Raspberry Pi instead of -sdimg.

If I try to write core-image-base-raspberrypi0-wifi-20200503052032.rootfs.wic.bz2 with Etcher, it's unbootable. If I expand the .bz2 then write core-image-base-raspberrypi0-wifi-20200503052032.rootfs.wic - it works.
