You shouldn't need to understand the format in order to just burn the
image to disk. e.g. for a floppy I can just "cat floppy.img > /dev/fd0".

OK, I gave up and tried it on win32. The "Power-DVD" bundled with the
wife's laptop burnt the image to CD as simply as could be.

Now to have a play with OS-X. It doesn't offer partitioning on install.
Will I be able to resize the partitions later, when installing Linux
power-PC ? (pref. Ubuntu)    I could just add a 2nd disk.
