Re: how to drag the dmg image?

2012-08-07 Thread Andrew Lamanche
I have accomplished this by downloading and running a free application called 
Lion Diskmaker 2rc2.app. They welcome donations but you are not obliged to pay.

Once you paste this application into your application folder, open it. It will 
locate your .dmg file and will ask you on which drive you wish to create a 
bootable image. Choose your drive or partition, and job done. First time I did 
it, the application actually informed me that it had completed the task. But 
next time, it just hung there. I had to force quit it  but when I tested the 
usb flash drive by booting from it, it worked fine. 
You should be able to find the relevant web page in Google.

Good luck.
