Linux has great command line utilities for copying binary data directly to a drive. The best tool for this is dd.
Open up a Linux terminal and run these commands
journalctl -f
Put your CF card into a reader attached to your Linux PC. You should see the device name pop up
exit journalctl with ctrl-c
Decompress your image
sudo xz -d <image name>
Write your image to the CF card
sudo dd if=<image name> of=<drive name> bs=1M
example:
sudo dd if=vamp-Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-22-20150627-sda.raw of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
