Hi,
You must have another mac/hackintosh pc with os x.
You must use disk utility to flash iso on usb.
Then install chameleon bootloader on usb
That's it

iMac: Mac OSX Leopard 10.5.6 (iDeneb v1.4) - CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4400 @ 2.0Ghz - MB: ECS P4M890T-M2 - RAM: 2Gb DDR2 800Mhz - Ethernet: RTL8139 - Audio: Realtek ALC662 - Video: nVidia Geforce 7300 512Mb - HDD: 320Gb SATA2 - DVD-RW: SONY DVD RW AW-G170A

To make a OSX booting USB from windows

Best choice ...
You can burn bootable ISO to DVD and boot it from DVD drive ( even USB DVD drive connected to your netbook).

On the other hand ...
There are also four Tools for windows ( searched on google ...)

1)TransMac
you can use TransMac 15days Trial
http://www.asy.com/scrtm.htm
connect USB under windows, launch Transmac, select USB, select "Format with diskimage" use iatkos iso.

2)
Leopard hd install helper v0.3
http://www.mediafire.com/?mtyyvnaodzu
use Usb pen formatted fat32
use ISO
flash iso on Usb

3) ultraISO
http://www.ezbsystems.com/ultraiso/
On Windows PC Format your USB drive in normal FAT32 format
run UltraISO, go to 'Bootable' and choose option ''Write Disk Image...''
there you select USB Drive...browse .ISO file....choose Write Method ''USB-HDD+'' and get done in an hour or less

4) win32 image writer
https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer/+download
use a USB pen formatted fat32
use ISO
flash iso on Usb

Hope this will help

I never used these methods ... tell us if you resolve ...

Sheikhoo,

Can you elaborate on "didn't boot". Did you receive an error?

Have you attempted to boot other operating systems from USB?

You should also consider placing your system specifications in your signature.
