I have installed dmg2img-1.6.2 on my Virtual Computer. when I say installed I mean I can see the folder dmg2img-1.6.2 and contents in my home directory. I am using linux 12.04. I have been trying for a week now to convert a dmg file to img using terminal. The response to "dmg2img lightroom_5_LS11.dmg" is syntax error. Other commands usually respond as " cannot open input file lightroom _5_LS11.dmg. Any help would be appreciated. Not sure which set of commands to use. Just been using trial and error method, none of which has worked.

You can use DMG2IMG.

To install, Just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:

sudo apt-get install dmg2img

To use, just do dmg2img -i <input.dmg> -o <output.img> See manpage

  • Have you tried it like this? Example: dmg2img /user/home/downloads/test.dmg -o test.img. You have to include the path to the .dmg file.

  • does "test" also mean something else? Or do I actually type test?

  • instead of test you input your file name.

  • The response is "Can't open input file /parallels/home/downloads/lightroom.dmg". This is what I keep getting no matter which set of commands I use. Do you know why?

Move your file to your HOME DIRECTORY and after this use dmg2img -i lightroom.dmg -o lightroom.img

After this you can find your lightroom.img in your HOME DIRECTORY

I think you see problem with path because you have not English Ubuntu.
