How to burn Arch LIveCD from OS X?

Hello. People, I need help, for ***** I'm terrible.
I want to install arch on mac.
There is only one flash drive available.
In order to raise the network during installation, you need additional packages that you need to put on a USB flash drive in order to have access to them during installation.
The problem is that from a fucking apple axis you can record live sit archa only through dd, after which the disk becomes inaccessible for recording.
Tell me in which direction to google to solve this problem.

I just want to warn you, install first from under OSX refit. efibootmgr bricks the motherboard.
And if you just cut off a little space from under OSX for a partition in fat or ntfs, throw packages there, and just mount this partition from the live image of arch and install the packages?

I will translate the question: "how to see the ext2-3-4 disk/partition
on a poppy" 1. Install fuse and ext2/ext3 plugin on poppy (brew install fuse, download manually, macports...)
1. Alternative - on poppy in vbox/ parallels/vmware is installed arch/ubunta/whatever
2. The disk is DDed
3. Everything that is needed is added to the disk

Try to take winRAR under MacOS and push the required package directly into the iso image.

Actually the issue was resolved by installing Keka . This thing can easily open archliveiso. Then I just threw the contents of the iso on a USB flash drive and in some "magical" way this thing started up perfectly (I think it's all about rEFInd). The only thing that is required is to specify the appropriate volume label when formatting the flash drive, otherwise the download will fail.
