I simply accomplished this task by using CCC instead of disk utility,
that is much easier and it yielded same result in the end, a bootable
flash drive.
Original message:
Here's how to get around the issue, click the restore tab, then in the
list of disks, control click the flash drive and choose set as
destination. You need to move the mouse to the item, and control click
it, doing VO shift m won't work, which is probably a bug in disk
utility. Once that's done, select the disk image for the source in the
usual way

Hello everybody.
Did we ever end up solving the VO dragging and dropping of the flash
drive on the the destination field in disc utility? I'm trying to make
a Lion drive right now and am having this issue.
Thanks all.

Hello,
I followed the instructions in Disc utility and as far as the drag and
drop, I got as far as setting the drive to be drug, but it never
completed the drag. Then once I got it to complete, but then it became
the source destination.
This whole drag and drop thing is really iffy at best.
I have Lion on a DVD, but for what ever reason, I am totally unable to
get the dmg file to properly be placed on the flash drive. I have never
had any problem with dealing with image files and using disk utility.
Does any one have any suggestions for doing the whole process of
putting the install dmg file on the flash drive as a bootable drive, I
don't mean the part about creating the partition and stuff, I mean the
restore part, it just isn't working at all. So again, instructions for
VO only would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Hi,
I partitioned a 32 gb flash drive, then I went to the restore tab in
disc utility. I chose the .dmg file as my source, but how can I choose
my destination as the flash drive?
Thanks,
Courtney

I saw a few questions on this list about this, so I looked it up.
Here's a link. Note that it's geared more toward sighted users, but
basically it involves taking the .dmg file and working with it in Disc Utility.

Quite interesting. The only issue: There is no Lion file in my
application folder. Do you have an idea what to do then?
Thanks and
all the best
Jürgen
