Maybe I'm just a little confused, but why is it difficult to create a disk image? If you're connected to a machine remotely via SSH or something similar, you can use the hdiutil command-line tool to create the images. Easy as pie - you could even create a shell script to do it automatically.

Disk images are, bar none, the best way to distribute an app on Mac OS X. If at all possible, you should use this method.

The current compile does make a drag-n-drop install application bundle. A
.dmg is difficult for the developer to create (as they compile remotely on a
OS X machine) - but there was the solution to gzip (this is where some good
Cocoa developers are needed as currently most of the code is
Resources/Carbon and can't be gzipped).
...and as someone commented the fink port is not really a final solution.
The developer is looking for people to help with the interface etc so that
Bochs can become a mainstream Mac solution.
The current port compiles and runs PC emulation - they have that down pat
(even reading from the CDROM drive).... Just taking it "mainstream".

I'm sorry to have wasted others bandwidth with this...
If anybody has any more comments please contact the developer.
