I may be wrong, but I seem to remember instructions to do just that to
create a bootable source for installing a distribution. Do you know
where I can read about this subject? Thanks!

dd is not a good command for burning usb sticks and this is probably why

Subject: Re: A Live Boot Image for the Mac that Talks
I suspect I am about to learn something so here's the deal:
I downloaded the iso image and used dd to pour it in to a
thumb drive
dd if=imagefile of=/dev/sdd in this case and away it went.
Several minutes later, the roughly 1-gig file ended up on
the thumb drive.
The mac is old enough not to have the T2 chip so if the
drive is bootable, it should boot which it does not.
If you plug the drive in, a message pops up stating that
it is unreadable on this computer
How do I get the Mac to boot off of that drive?
