CRYPTO7 Okay, at least in 10.4.10 these are the same: hdiutil convert /path/to/filename.dmg -format UDTO -o /path/to/outfile hdiutil convert -format UDTO -o /path/to/outfile /path/to/filename.dmg DMG Converter (http://sunsky3s.s41.xrea.com/dmgconverter/index.html) can create ISO filesystems. But it cannot CONVERT images to ISO filesystems, only make new images using it. But the Terminal command "hdiutil" can with the "makehybrid" verb. Open Terminal and type "man hdiutil" to see this; tap space bar or return to get down to VERBS (specifically convert and makehybrid). The syntax is: hdiutil makehybrid -o [options] [options] are -hfs, -iso, -joliet, and -udf. So first drag a .dmg to your Desktop. Then open Terminal and type: hdiutil makehybrid -o ~/Desktop/[new_image_name] ~/Desktop/[source] and hit Enter. [source] can either be a directory or a disk image. So if you mount the image first and THEN use DMG Converter, "converting" and "making" a new disc image from the mounted volume is the same thing... But the nice thing about the hdiutil Terminal command is that "By default, if no filesystem is specified, the image will be created with all four filesystems as a hybrid image." So don't specify -hfs, -iso, -joliet or -udf and your image has all 4 filesystems! I tried it on a 458 MB .dmg and got a hybrid .iso that was 530 MB in size. Compared to the 592 MB ".iso" file that was actually a .cdr made with "hdiutil convert" -- and only had the single HFS+ filesystem -- I'm much happier w/ the true ISO that is 60 MB smaller and has 4 filesystems! I'm beginning to like UNIX more and more... BTW Damage Isolation DOES make .ISO images which can be burned using Sonic, etc. and other windoze apps, but just beware that the burned CD has only an HFS+ filesystem. (Version 1.4.2) |
