    From my experience this cannot be done. That would be like trying to launch Windows from a ZIP or MSI files.

    Although you can just extract the DMG file contents to an external hard drive using the restore feature in Mac OS X. This way the operating system will see the external drive as a bootable CD/DVD drive.

    Then just boot to the external drive the next time you startup the computer.
