Putting Raspian on an SD card in Linux is very simple.  Like this:

Either as root, or using sudo:

dd bs=4M if=raspian_file.img of=/dev/mmcblk0

That's all there is to it.  Will take a few minutes to finish.

Obviously, use the correct filename where I wrote 
'raspian_file.img' there above, and the 'mmcblk0' is *usually* the 
correct name of the SD card.

After that just put the SD in the Pi, and boot it up.  Done.
