Any idea? Also, I had to instal dskmngr manually. No big deal there though.
Thanks!

Unless you've been trying to install Etcher, I think you might be asking in the wrong place?

Oh, I see now – we currently don't have packages for ARMv7 (Raspberry Pis, etc) available at this time, so you'd have to build it yourself.

If you're a Linux novice, then you might find trying to build Etcher for ARM a bit tricky. But if you're up for it, then see https://github.com/resin-io/etcher/blob/master/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md

@lurch @wiggletech building Etcher on ARM is pretty broken at the moment, mainly due to node-sass and electron-builder – so I wouldn't recommend trying it, unless you're willing to patch a few things in the code by hand – I've created #1993 to track these things, as we need to get them fixed soon to finally publish ARM builds, and for Etcher Pro.

Any progress here?

There's been some progress, there are still a thing or two to be done (see #1993). These aren't actively worked on at the moment though.

I make it run on rpi3. but only through npm ("npm start"), the npm test didnt pass for some reason, but It burn .img's and they boot flawless on my pi. so... no idea how to proceed now to pack this.

I get something, but electron-builder didnt achieve a .deb because of architecture problem (fmp-linux its an x86 package and it doesnt have an arm one).

You could at least run the program. Just unzip and run.

On the Raspberry Pi forums, a user named tinker2much managed to compile an Etcher .deb for Raspberry Pi.
Installation is easy:
wget https://github.com/futurejones/balena-etcher-arm/releases/download/v1.5.63/balena-etcher-electron_1.5.63_Raspbian_Buster_armhf.deb
sudo apt-get install ./balena-etcher-electron_1.5.63_Raspbian_Buster_armhf.deb

Just for reference, #2870 is the currently-open "Etcher on Raspberry Pi please" issue 😉
