I have accomplished this by downloading and running a free application called Lion Diskmaker 2rc2.app. They welcome donations but you are not obliged to pay.
Once you paste this application into your application folder, open it. It will locate your .dmg file and will ask you on which drive you wish to create a bootable image. Choose your drive or partition, and job done. First time I did it, the application actually informed me that it had completed the task. But next time, it just hung there. I had to force quit it but when I tested the usb flash drive by booting from it, it worked fine. You should be able to find the relevant web page in Google. Good luck.
