Does anybody know how to transfer a .dmg file that is 6gb from windows xp. I have a . dmg file and i want to transfer. But i keep getting a msg that say desitnation drive full and it is a far from full it 30gb drive and only has 1 gb of files on it. Are there any compression tools I could use to transfer it so that I able to transfer on to my portable drive. I was also wonder if it is at all possible to install LEOPARD OS on a Vitual Machine that is on a windows xp based system?

You may expand .dmg under Windows with utility, named "UFS Explorer" (www.ufsexplorer.com).
Looks like it supports both compressed .dmg and HFS there...

Daemon tools won't open a compressed dmg file, unfortunately... even simple ISOBuster won't do it (I think - speaking from experience) - ISOBuster Pro is need to decompress the data... Nope. ISOBuster Pro doesn't work either. It can extracting the data but that is futile seeing as it'll still be compressed and thus unreadable. Even converting to a ISO/BIN file won't work. Sure doing so enable you to burn the image to a CD but Windows or OS 9 still won't recognise it. You can mount compressed DMG images with Daemon tools but again Windows won't recognise what's been mounted and just chucks out an error. Basically there's currently absdolutely no way to decompress a compressed DMG on Windows. The same goes for Mac OS 9.

Ultra ISO did it for me, thanks to those who pointed me in to the right direction, hope this helps someone else.
