Actually the article i read sais you can make a bootable dvd with disk utility.
download the installer files to your hard drive. Once you have the installer
files, follow these steps to create your very own boot disc:
• Use Finder to locate the Mac OS X Lion installer, right-click and
select "Show Package Contents."
• Find the SharedSupport folder and look for a file named
"InstallESD.dmg." This is the Lion Boot Disc image.
• Copy the "InstallESD.dmg" file to another folder, such as your
desktop.
• Launch Disk Utility and click the burn button.
• Select the "InstallESD.dmg" copy as the image to burn, insert a DVD,
and in a few minutes, you will have a brand new Lion Boot Disc.
