I have a Power Macintosh G4, and i have downloaded the Max Os 9...

I have the DMG file but when i try to convert it to ISO with the DMG2ISO this happens:

reading property list...ok
found 4 partitions
decrompressing:
partition 0...ok
partition 1...ERROR: Inflation Failed

what does this means? what does the Inflation is in a .dmg file?

also... i have try other system ( X 10 ) and i got it to convert to iso with other software, and when i copy the files into a CD the Mac will not read it, is there something i'm doing wrong?

please some one come up with an answer...

thank you.

u r doing it worng.
at this point back up your info and then do a clean install of os 10, then insert disk 2 that has classic support on it and your classic programs should run.
if you r tring to run os 9 and 10 on the same computer you would have to partion the drive and have os 9 listed 1st

thanks for answering my question, but i have not got to the instalation yet, i'm having troubles passing the .DMG to .ISO, it gives me an error. Inflation Failed. what does that means?

thanks

ok. problem solved, what i was doing wrong in the process of converting .DMG to .ISO was that the .DMG had to be converted with Full Patch Ultra ISO, after i patch the program it allows me to convert it, and then Burn the Mac OS 9.1 to a CD, and whoala!

new system installed on clean Mac

:D !!!!!

try using magiciso to open dmg file. and save it as to iso image.
