Hi,

Sorry if this is only half-CentOS-related.

In my office, I'm running CentOS on all my systems (server, workstation,
laptop, sandbox PCs). A colleague brought me her MacBook Pro to upgrade
it from OS X 10.5.7 to 10.11.6.

I downloaded the 5.8 GB dmg file and now I wonder how to create a
bootable DVD with this using only Linux tools.

1. Can I simply burn this as a data DVD with K3B?

2. Or do I have to jump through burning loops using dmg2img, mount -t
hfsplus, etc.

I only have a couple of double layer DVDs here, so before burning a pair
of expensive coasters, I thought I'd rather ask here.

Cheers,

Niki
