DMG to / from ISO??
Authored by: leamanc on Feb 27, '09 09:04:50PM

Well, this question was asked six years ago, but in case anyone is wondering still, it's very simple: change the extension from .dmg to .iso. Now, most (if not all) DMGs are HFS+ formatted disk images, so the system you mount the .iso on must be able to read HFS.

But I have done this trick to burn Mac disks on Windows and Linux. Those systems' disc burning apps generally won't recognize .dmg as a disk image format, but of course recognize .iso. They will burn the .iso fine as a HFS+ formatted CD/DVD.
