1. Download or create an image file. To create a bootable USB flash drive, you'll need a bootable image. Image files usually end with.ISO.IMG, or.DMG. If you already have an image file you want to turn into a bootable USB drive, you're good to go!
2. Transmac for Windows (2-week trial) can format USB drives for mac and restore.dmg files to USB drives. Download Transmac and install in Windows. In the right-side panel of Transmac, right click on your USB Drive Format Disk Format with Disk Image (see attached screenshot) Point to your.dmg file and click Open.

How To Make Dmg File Bootable Usb On Windows Without Transmac

This recipe will explain how to make a USB Thumb Drive bootable with the OS X Lion Developer Preview installer on it and in turn allow you to install Lion on a Mac without an optical drive (ie Macbook Air line). We will need a copy of the installer dmg (not provided) and a 4GB USB Thumbdrive or Memorycard Reader w/memory card and a Mac to convert the dmg to a bootable usb thumb drive.

Requirements:

• – OS X Lion installation DMG (hint: file named: mac_os_x_10_7_11a390.dmg)
• – Mac running OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard
• – USB Thumbdrive or Memorycard Reader w/memory card (4GB mininum, data will be destroyed).

This guide lets you restore the .dmg installer file for OS X Lion onto a usb thumbdrive. We can then boot the USB Drive on our Mac to install OS X Lion from it. This is very handy for us Macbook Air users that do not have an external optical drive.

Guide:

5. Hold Option/Alt after your see the Apple logo appear and boot with the thumbdrive in your Mac.

Choose the USB Drive to install OS X Lion from your USB Thumbdrive!

• – I would recommend creating a separate partition for your OS X Lion installation as well.

NOTES:

– I have confirmed this working on a Macbook Air 11″, 2010, 1.6Ghz version.
