I’m using a MAC.

I burned a couple of disks with the image with the standard disk utility.

When I try to boot from those disks a message appears saying that the disk is not bootable.

I still can’t use my SSD

this is an image. you need to make sure you are burning it as am image and not a normal data cd. 

I’am using mac too , i can boot on the cd …but i can’t use my bluetooth keyboard or usb keyboard …

It could be isolate with the keyboard alone. Have you tried other keyboard to see if it makes a difference? 

I ve only two other keyboards , an i.r  keyboards with an usb dongle and an old white apple bluetooth keyboards , i am going to try with them , but i think that it wille not work 

The step “g” is incorrect. You must power on a Mac first to eject a disk.
