Open DMG File on Linux
DMG files use Hierarchical File System (HFS) as a disk file system format. In order for your Linux machine to open DMG files it needs to support HFS and HFS+. To enable HFS and HFS+ support on your Linux machine you will need to install HFS tools and kernel modules.
Ubuntu
Below are instructions on how to install HFS and HFS+ and mount HFS+ drive on Ubuntu.
1) Install hfsprogs which enables operation with HFS and HFS+ on Linux via ports of mkfs and fsck.
sudo apt-get install hfsprogs
2) Mount or remount the HFS+ drive
sudo mount -t hfsplus -o force,rw /dev/sdXY /media/mntpoint
or
sudo mount -t hfsplus -o remount,force,rw /mount/point
3) If the drive is partially corrupted or was unmounted with an error run:
sudo fsck.hfsplus -f /dev/sdXY
CentOS
Below are instructions on how to mount HFS or HFS+ in CentOS:
1) Install hfs kernel modules and hfs+ tools:
yum install kmod-hfs
yum install hfsplus-tools
2) Mount or remount the HFS+ drive
sudo mount -t hfsplus -o force,rw /dev/sdXY /media/mntpoint
or
sudo mount -t hfsplus -o remount,force,rw /mount/point
3) If the drive is partially corrupted or was unmounted with an error run:
