2013/10/14 failed for making a Windows7 bootable usb disk using the method below

    diskutil list

    You should see the usb disk is one of the /dev/disk?

  • Unmount the usb disk for writing the img file into the usb:
    diskutil umountDisk /dev/disk?

  • Use dd command to write the img file into the ubs disk:
    sudo dd -if=$[name].dmg -of=/dev/disk? bs=1m

  • If your dd command is GNU version, use:

  • After the dd command is completed, eject the usb disk:
    diskutil eject /dev/disk?
