Maybe try to prepare image first and then write once to sd card?
Something like:

truncate -s 1024M imx6.img
mdconfig -f imx6.img -u0
newfs /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0 /mnt

# build kernel-toolchain if needed
make -DNO_CLEAN TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv6 KERNCONF=IMX6 -j10 buildkernel
make -DNO_CLEAN TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv6 -j10 buildworld
make -DNO_CLEAN TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=armv6 DESTDIR=/mnt installworld
distribution

umount /mnt
mdconfig -d -u0
sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16
dd if=imx6.img of=/dev/da0 bs=4096k
