First I dd an SD card:
sudo dd if=/dev/sdb of=/home/rgm/arm/rsel-minimal.img bs=4096 conv=notrunc,noerror
Then I ran xz which produced an error:
xz -k rsel-minimal.img xz: rsel-minimal.img.xz: Cannot set the file group: Operation not permitted
Is this because the sudo made the owner of .img root? Do I ignore the error or go back and change the owner of .img?
I will want to make this .img available to others to download and build their own SDcards for booting on Cubieboards.

xz -t rsel-minimal.img.xz
did not report any errors...

It was ownership that xz wsa complaining about. Changed that and ran again. No errors and xzcat piped to /dev/sdb gives me a bootable card.
More progress.
