Hello All.
I am trying to open an Apple .DMG file on my Ubuntu box and getting no
where fast. I am essentially seeing the same errors as those posted
above so i will cut to the chase and give you the raw details.
For what its worth this could be an issue with the DMG file itself as it
is the Apple Xcode 3.1 package. I am attempting to get the needed files
from it for my Cross-build toolchain.
The file opens on OS-X 10.5.4 (PPC) *BUT!!* once the DMG file opens
there is a specific PKG file that I need to extract some more files
from, and OS-X is being difficult in that regards.
I have tried using the hfsutils to manipulate the file, but i think i
might have had my syntax wrong.
I am open to suggestions.
Below are my system details and error messages as i am seeing them.

These are the error message that i see when trying to loop mount the
file

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

dmesg | tail , gives the following details when trying a few different ways to
mount the file.
