It's how Firefox gets downloaded to a Mac. The .dmg gets mounted, then you drag the FF folder from the mounted volume to the applications folder to "install" it, after which you "trash" the mounted volume and the downloaded .dmg to regain the space and clear the download target. AIUI, when a .dmg file is created from a bootable CD, the Mac disk utility can write it back to a CD to remain as bootable as the original. I tried renaming the .dmg to .iso, but K3B doesn't recognize the format when it tries to prepare to burn. > I.e. just create a data CD or DVD with that file on it? I would have no hope that such a CD would be bootable without finding or being given evidence to the contrary. -- "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry."
