Converting .DMG images to .ISO to create OSX bootable CD's

Okay, so.. lets say you had a DMG file, that you wanted to make an ISO image out of?? This is basically what you do:

  • Get the DMG file. Lets say its called cdimage.dmg
  • Fire up a terminal session.
  • cd to wherever this file is, and give the following command:
  • hdiutil convert cdimage.dmg -format UDTO -o cdimage.iso
  • FINITO!

    Okay, I admit!! I thieved it out of this post on that forum over there. But still, its good info.

    I'll update this space if this doesn't help me in what I'm trying to do.. nudge nudge wink wink. ;-P

    Update:

    Well, I created the so called ISO image (even though hdiutil called it name.iso.dmg). I trucked right along and copied it to my windoze box and renamed it to ISO. Now when I try to burn the image as ISO, Easy CD Creator complains that it is NOT a valid ISO image. FCUK!!!!

  • I think I've had enough of Narnia..

    I think I would've really liked it when I was a kid, but it tries to explain too much. And it talks down too much. This ain't no 'obbit sir!
