How to burn a Mac .dmg file on a PC?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey guys,

I've got a bit of a dilemma here. I've got a Mac without a DVD burner, but I have a Mac .dmg file that needs to be burned with a DVD burner. I'm positive there is a way to burn it on a PC (even if I have to convert it to a PC iso format first), but I am not not knowledgable enough to know how.

I have played around with a program call TransMac, but can not figure that thing out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much!

You could try Isobuster which supports many image-formats.

It's possible that it can convert .dmg to .iso, so you can burn it using Nero.

try this little command line program, you only put "dmg2iso file.dmg file.iso" and the job is done  :thumbup

I have tried this on a DMG of a DVD i have but it didn't work...

I also tried the mac command utility to create an ISO file and it complete sucessfully and my computer can burn it, but when I put it into my G3 pismo i don't get any love... the DVD doesnt even show up...

Any ideas? I need to boot from the DMG so i cannot just mount it on the desktop. Is there a Daemon tools type program for the MACs?
