If the DMG was intended to be bootable then the resulting USB will be bootable.

We want to copy a DMG image to a USB drive and keep it as verbatim as computationally possible.

In order to do this, were first going to convert the image to a format thats a little more universal: ISO.

Dmg To Bootable Install It Using

If not, install it using your distributions native package management system.

I used lsblk to figure out how the system was identifying my drive.

This process is going to overwrite the target disk with the contents of our DMG image file.

For example devsdb.

Be sure to use the drive directly and not a partition within the drive.

Im using a Kingston DataTraveler DTSE9 and it took about 24 minutes 30 seconds to write 4.9GB.

How do I get the installer into Applications Opening the dmg places what looks like an installer on my desktop which I cannot move into Applications and upon clicking it opens a finder window with a.pkg.

You will need an 8GB or larger USB flash drive that has been partitioned and formatted for use with OS X.

Choose the appropriate command line (in red) depending upon what OS X installer you want.

Paste that entire command line from below at the Terminals prompt.

Wait for the return of the Terminal prompt signifying the process has completed.
