[QUOTE="xstep, post: 346222, member: 11647"] Apples hdiutil seems (and has been said) to not be able to create bootable disks. D'uh! Perhaps mkisofs with the -udf option will work for you. I've only done CD images. I used mkisofs that came with ffmpegX so I made an alias to that instead. Surely it is downloadable by it self. alias mkisofs "/Applications/3rdParty/Tools\ Video/ffmpegX/ffmpegX.app/Contents/Resources/mkisofs" Then did this. mkisofs -r -o bsd40b.iso -b 4.0/i386/cdrom40.fs -c boot_catalog -l -v /Users/dreely/Parallels/OpenBSD/OpenBSD -r keeps lowercase to lowercase. -o bsd40b.iso is the end result file that is bootable and burnable. -b 4.0/i386/cdrom40.fs is the file that gets boot when booting the cd. -c boot_catalog adds a boot catalog and is required for a bootable cd. -l allows for 31 character file names. -v /Users/dreely/Parallels/OpenBSD/OpenBSD is where my content is.
