Thanks in advance, Kris The only method I know of, is this: (you need a mac computer and osx86 tools to do this. ask a friend that has a mac if you don't.) Boot to the Leopard desktop Put your iATKOS.DMG on the desktop Insert your USB Flash Drive In Disk Utility, click on the Flash Drive (the root, not the partition name) a. Click on the Restore tab b. Select your iATKOS.DMG as the Source (you can drag-and- drop the files for both this and the next step) c. Select your Flash Drive (the partition name, not the root this time) as the Destination d. Check the "Erase Destination" box e. Click the Start button Upon completion, install Chameleon EFI to the USB Flash Drive Using osx86 tools. Reboot set the boot priority to usb and iATKOS will boot up Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/255598-cant-make-iatkos-bootable-usb/#findComment-1677793 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septendre Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 There is a method using windows XP (doesn't work with vista and probably not with windows 7). You need a program called Leopard_hd_install_helper, and the Leopard install disk image. It's a chinese program but it comes with a screen capture that have been translated into english. Easy to use and understand. you can read: Leopard hd install helper Have the files : Leopard_hd_install_helper_v0.3.zip And Have luck!
