In this tutorial video, I show you an alternative way to make a bootable Mavericks USB drive and how to boot from that USB drive.

NOTE: You must have the "Install OS X Mavericks" file in the Applications folder for this to work. This file does get automatically deleted when upgrading to save space. If the file is not there, download it from the App Store. When it's done downloading, the installer will automatically start. Quit the installer and verify the file is now in the Application folder.

Here are the commands to enter in Terminal (shown in the video).

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
