Note: this procedure requires an .img file that you will be required to create from the .iso file you download.\u00a0TIP:\u00a0Drag and Drop<\/i>\u00a0a file from Finder to Terminal to ‘paste’ the full path without typing and risking type errors (this is in MacOSX).<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Download the desired file (https:\/\/help.ubuntu.com\/community\/Lubuntu\/GetLubuntu)<\/li>\n
  2. Open the Terminal (in \/Applications\/Utilities\/ or query Terminal in Spotlight)<\/li>\n
  3. Convert the .iso file to .img using the convert option of hdiutil (e.g.,hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ~\/path\/to\/target.img ~\/path\/to\/ubuntu.iso<\/code>)<\/li>\n
  4. Note:<\/b>\u00a0OS X tends to put the\u00a0.dmg<\/code>\u00a0ending on the output file automatically.<\/li>\n
  5. Run\u00a0diskutil list<\/code>\u00a0to get the current list of devices<\/li>\n
  6. Insert your flash media<\/li>\n
  7. Run\u00a0diskutil list<\/code>\u00a0again and determine the device node assigned to your flash media (e.g. \/dev\/disk2)<\/li>\n
  8. Run\u00a0diskutil unmountDisk \/dev\/diskN<\/code>\u00a0(replace\u00a0N<\/i>\u00a0with the disk number from the last command; in the previous example,\u00a0N<\/i>\u00a0would be 2)<\/li>\n
  9. Execute\u00a0sudo dd if=\/path\/to\/downloaded.img of=\/dev\/rdiskN bs=1m<\/code>\u00a0(replace\u00a0\/path\/to\/downloaded.img<\/code>\u00a0with the path where the image file is located; for example,\u00a0.\/lubuntu.img\u00a0<\/code>or\u00a0.\/lubuntu.dmg<\/code>).<\/li>\n
  10. Using\u00a0\/dev\/rdisk<\/code>\u00a0instead of\u00a0\/dev\/disk<\/code>\u00a0may be faster.
    If you see the error\u00a0dd: Invalid number '1m'<\/code>, you are using GNU dd. Use the same command but replace\u00a0bs=1m<\/code>\u00a0with\u00a0bs=1M<\/code>.
    If you see the error\u00a0dd: \/dev\/diskN: Resource busy<\/code>, make sure the disk is not in use. Start the ‘Disk Utility.app’ and unmount (don’t eject) the drive.<\/li>\n
  11. Run\u00a0diskutil eject \/dev\/diskN<\/code>\u00a0and remove your flash media when the command completes<\/li>\n
  12. Done<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    Unetbootin seems rather good but doesnt work in this instance. (http:\/\/unetbootin.sourceforge.net\/<\/a> )<\/div>\n
