i'm fairly sure i need a bootable usb for my new self built computer, but i'm not 100 certain, so i'm asking. and as for how to make a bootable usb, i have a usb in FAT 32 format, and i got stuck on step 3 of the tutorial. After about 2 hours of trying this and looking at other threads, i don't understand any of it. Untill today i had never even opened the terminal on any computer ever so being specific and showing me key-for-key would be very advisable. thanks for the help, i'm really bad at this.

There are two others ways I know of. Using a CD or DVD; or, you can just send it over the network directly. Sys admins can actually install OSes to 100's of computers over the network this way I hear. – Christopher King Jan 10 '14 at 23:36

I already had this link but thanks anyways. I couldnt figure out what i was doing wrong but then i realised that i was typing dhutil instead of hdiutil (such a stupid mistake). But thanks anyway! – user234338 Jan 11 '14 at 13:13
