If you need a cross platform disk image (e.g. so that it may be burned into boot-able media), ISO 9660 would be the best choice.


Which ISO 9660? Level 1, 2, or 3. With what extension support? Rockridge, Joliet, or HFS?


The conclusions I came to on this the last time this came up still seem sort of valid...

If you want a .dmg do it on a Mac, or finish by shipping to a Mac where you make your .dmg.

Just a whole lot simpler than trying to come up with your implementation when Apple has already done the work for you and ships it ready for use.

IISO 9660 does sound like it would probably be the best format, maybe keeping to level 1 or 2 for the maximum number of machines it'll work with. But I don't see where java code to create the ISO 9660 would add any value to this, and the tools on the other platforms from what I saw don't give you everything hdiutil does.
