Burn to usb a dmg of unibeast drive.

Hi guys.

So I have a working Yosemite on my desktop and everything works great.On the other side my laptop needs a unibeast drive to access it and install chimera all over again.So during the past months I had created a yosemite and a mavericks unibeast drives for my purposes just to be safe and hassle free I created 2 dmgs of these fully working unibeast bootable drives.
The case is note that I want to restore them something is wrong and I can't get them bootable even the process is completed nicely.

I had used the disk utility app formatted guid partition and macos journalled on usb drive then restored the dmg as source and usb as destination but it seems it doesn't get bootable.

I follow these steps under yosemite .
I thought the process was simple like restore and create.
Am I missing something here?

You're going to have to download OS X Yosemite from the Mac App Store and create a new UniBeast installer.

So there is no way to burn the dmg to usb drive?
If so what's the point of restoring in the disk utility app...

If you have a working desktop running OS X Yosemite already, then download the Yosemite App from the Mac App Store and create a brand new installer with UniBeast. What's so difficult about that?

If you only need to install Chimera- "On the other side my laptop needs a unibeast drive to access it and install chimera all over again.", you don't need to create a DMG, you can simply put the Chimera stand-alone installer on a USB drive and install Chimera.

To be honest, what you're trying to do doesn't really make much sense.

[Solved] Burn to usb a dmg of unibeast drive.

The thing is that I have a laptop with 2 partitions (mavericks and win 7) so I can't just put chimera in a usb stick and just install it since I only can boot win 7.

At least my problem is solved.
Here what I did:
1.drag dmg to disk utility
2.format mbr partition hfs+ the usb drive
3.dismount the partition it was created
4.select the dmg click the restore tab and put destination the unmounted partition earlier created
5.restore after it is done install chimera in the usb drive and you are ready to go.


This process is a nice way to restore your unibeast drive without having to download again probably the Osx edition on your mac.

Thanks for the help.



An I missing something about putting chimera installer in usb and just install it ?

What does having two partitions have to do with what you install on a USB?

I agree with BeezleBozo, what your doing makes no sense.

On my desktop i have no problem.
I had this issue with my laptop so do you mean that by just installing chimera on a usb drive it can boot my laptop from it?
