The procedure for Mac OS/X Users follows the one for Linux Users, but differs in some parts. Additionally, Mac Users should be aware that they are able to prepare their flash drive on a Mac, while booting the flash drive itself on a Mac may not necessarily work. This depends especially on their hardware's generation. In this case, using a boot helper as explained in the wiki might help. Please pay attention when running the dd command, as it will wipe your flash drive!

The procedure for Mac OS/X users is similar to the one for Linux users. Mac users should be aware that they may be able to prepare their flash drive on a Mac, but depending on the generation of the hardware used, they may need to use another computer to test whether the prepared flash drive works.
