Run diskutil eject /dev/disk N, and remove your flash media when the command completes (this can take a few hours on slower drives) Run diskutil unmountDisk /dev/disk N (replace N with the disk number from the last command in the previous example, N would be 2)Įxecute sudo dd if=/path/to/downloaded.iso of=/dev/disk N bs=1m (replace /path/to/downloaded.iso with the path where the image file is located for example. Run diskutil list and determine the device node assigned to your flash media (e.g., /dev/disk2) Here are some instructions from Gizmodo that will put the ISO onto the flash drive with a Mac.
