Wikipedia has some good info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image It suggests the command line: mount -o loop,ro -t hfsplus imagefile.dmg /mnt/mountpoint Not sure if the ro will make a difference ... you might have to install some other hfs utilities to make that work. I know that there seem to be two mutually incompatible took sets for hfs in the repositories. There are also some other conversion utilities mentioned there. While dmg files are disk images, it almost seems that File Roller should be the right tool. /Mike -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
