Burning .dmg ~vs~ iso

[Littleodie914]

Hmm... Does this trick in which you use Disk Utility to convert the .dmg to an .ISO allow you to create bootable CD's? Like if you have a linux .DMG, but want to convert it to .ISO, then burn it on a PC, but boot it from a Mac? (Hope that wasn't too confusing... )

Why don't you just burn it on the Mac? I see you have an iMac G5... You must have at least a Combo Drive... right?

DMG ISO

Well I have the same issue. I have a DMG which I converted to ISO with dmg2iso.exe. WinISO UltraISO MagicISO and Roxio do not recognise it as a valid image file. Good new is Nero didn't put up any such fuss about its image. The bad news is, it burned a coaster.

Suggestions ?

OR...why don't you go out and buy the god**** operating system?!

And besides, a Mac can burn ISO's into bootable just fine. But I'm not gonna help you find out how to do it. Oh, and please mount the .dmg on your desktop before burning it so that it burns as a coaster.
