DVD+R DL is necessary for 4.71-9.4 GB images. This media size is
necessary for more than 120 minutes of DVD video, too -- with the
new disc capacity being 240 minutes.
These are burnable in the latest Mac-included SuperDrives, but not
in all older ones. (I do not have any information on which models
started including the newer drives, but it was not later than the
Intel-based iMacs.)
Optionally, if you have a free partition on any attached drive that's
big enough, you can just write the .dmg to the hard drive partition
rather than burning a DVD. This is common practice for many Apple
engineers. Then you can boot from that partition rather than booting
from the DVD. It's typically much faster than burning a DVD, too.
