Dec 30, 2010  I have a LIte On Dual Layer DVD Burner that has the latest firmware. Sadly, although all software can see that it is a dual layer capable drive, the moment that I try to use it, it fails. The drive itself is good because if I put in in a system using Windows 7 32 bit, it burns Dual LAyer disks perfectly. Mar 28, 2019  A dual layer DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) is similar to the original DVD created by EFMPlus in 1995 except it can store up to 8.5 gigabytes of data instead of just 4.7 gigabytes. Since a dual layer DVD has a different storage capacity you also need advanced hardware and software to burn dual layer DVD.

Hello to everyone.

I'm trying to resize the *.dmg of my MAC OS X installation file because I have only DVD of 4.7 GB and not dual layer disks,at the moment. The problem is that the dmg file is almost 7 GB large and I don't know how to reduce it to 4.7 GB. After a lot of searching,I've understood that this can't be done for multiple reasons. So,I've thought about another way to reach the goal. I've converted the dmg file into an iso file with the transmac tool and now I want to split the iso file into 2 pieces and burn the image using two dvd discs,making that the first disk is bootable. Can this be done ? Right now I've found some tools that tells to be able to split an iso file into more pieces,but they do it before burning the image. They also provide a script to recombine the two pieces into one and then you can burn it. This way is totally useless. Do you know about another way / method to do it ? thanks.

Select the.dmg or.iso name in the left pane of the Disk Utility, then click Burn (top left). The Burn Disc In: window will open and display the destination (your blank CD/DVD) for your file. In the Burn Disc In: window, click Burn. The Disk Utility Progress window will open and the burning process will begin. Jan 20, 2018  Click on the File tab at the top, and select the option “Open Disk Image” to load macOS installer DMG file to the software. Find the DMG file loaded on the left side, right-click on it and choose to burn it to DVD. Once you write InstallESD.DMG file to DVD on Windows, load it to a Mac and start it. I only see Dual Layer DVDR or +R media. No dual layer RW media. That is the first step, to have dual layer capable media. There are several free DVD burning software available. Do a google search. I have not used any of these so I can't say which ones work or don't work or are the best. This video explains how you can extract, and burn InstallESD.DMG, the Mac OS X installer file for OX 10.7 Lion, OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, to a bootable DVD in Windows 7, 8 or Windows 10.

Hint author here. I'll agree that in most cases you would be better off using a USB flash drive (8 gig drives cost practically nothing these days.) In my case, my employer asked that I create some bootable DVDs, and I didn't want to have to order a bunch of dual-layers. I'm sure there are others in similar circumstances.

I haven't tried the script, but it probably won't work in bash without properly escaping and/or quoting the paths with spaces on them.

You're absolutely right - good catch. The paths were fully escaped when I submitted the hint, but it looks like the backslashes got stripped out after submission.
I'll see about getting it fixed. In the meantime, you can download the escaped version here:

I've fixed it.

Were they back slashes, or forward slashes?

Burning Dmg To Dual Layer Dvd In Windows 7 Bit 32

I had the install app in a Downloads folder. You will need to change that reference to where your copy of the app is located. This ran in Terminal, after I saved the text as 'MLresize.sh', using nano, and ran on the file.

(I've got a lot of blank DVDs. And they won't get zapped by lightning like my Base Station did.)

The script ran in a few minutes, much less time than actually burning the DVD.
I just dropped the created .dmg file into Disk Utility, selected it, and clicked on burn.
After burning, the disc shows in System Preferences->Startup Disk as bootable.
Although I haven't tried it out yet.

How exactly does this work? How can you reduce the uncompressed size of an image without losing any data?

The image itself has a fixed size of 4.75 GB, but contains only 4.35 GB of data. All we're doing is trimming the free space.

So you can't just use Image/Resize in Disk Utility? (I'd try it, but I don't have Mountain Lion.)

Resize only works for read/write disk images, so, no.

I just copy/pasted the stuff for terminal, not bothering with the bash and everything worked as advertised. Verifying burnt disc now. Thanks!!

@kirkmc Why do you need Lion DiskMaker? Can't you just restore the InstallESD image in Install X Mountain Lion/Contents/SharedSupport using Disk Utility?
I have an installer on a USB and an SDHC Card using the restore method.

@derekJAB,
you can in fact restore InstallESD.dmg. Just remember to mount the dmg for Mountain Lion.
If you don't, disk utility will throw you an error.

for somehow I need to add 'sleep' before detach to avoid resource busy
#! /bin/bash
# 2012-08-07 01 prw from Mac OS X Hints web site..

If you do want to get the Mountain Lion installer InstallESD.dmg to fit on a single layer DVD, you can use the overburn feature of hdiutil in Mac OS X.
AFTER inserting a blank DVD, bring up terminal, navigate to the dmg folder and type:
hdiutil burn InstallESD.dmg
Depending on your brand of DVD your mileage may vary.

What does dmg mean. A gang where the dankest memes are made, only for surreal people. Lead by the 'lord' avishay, it is nearly impossible for a meme to be accepted as it must be the dankest out there. It's the illuminati on the meme world. There's no insight into DMG from the outside world as there is limited talk. The only way in is to be added by an existing member. Again, just because you can extract a DMG file in Windows, or even convert a DMG to a Windows-readable format, doesn't always mean that the contents of. Looking for the definition of DMG? Find out what is the full meaning of DMG on Abbreviations.com! 'Duel Masters Guide' is one option - get in to view more @ The Web's largest and most authoritative acronyms and abbreviations resource.

You can infact burn the installer to a single layer DVD, using a feature called overburn. This is much simpler than it sounds.
AFTER inserting a blank DVD, bring up terminal, navigate to the dmg folder and type:
hdiutil burn InstallESD.dmg
Depending on your brand of DVD your mileage may vary. It's not unusual to get errors after finishing the burn but as long as the Finishing Burn message is shown, the disc will function as expected.

How Dual Layer Dvd Works

I think using any of these methods will cause the image to have a different checksum than the original. If that's not important to you, don't fret.
$ man hdiutil
-[no]optimizeimage do [not] optimize filesystem for burning.
Optimization can reduce the size of an HFS or
HFS+ volume to the size of the data contained
on the volume. This option will change what
is burned such that the disc will have a dif-
ferent checksum than the image it came from.
The default is to burn all blocks of the disk
image (minus any trailing Apple_Free).
