:: Here is a simple way to recognize a bootable USB on a Mac.<br>
  −
{{Box|Go to rEFIt (http://refit.sourceforge.net/) and make a bootable cd.
  −
"There is no need to install rEFIt on your mac. In fact installing rEFIt may make it impossible to upgrade the Mac OS to a newer version later on (personal experience, I had to do a clean install).
  −
Put the rEFIt CD[1] in and hold the '''option key''' after turning the computer on.
  −
The Mac will recognize the CD because it uses EFI and then the CD will recognize the bootable USB."[2]
