These are burnable in the latest Mac-included SuperDrives, but not in all older ones.

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. Well then you can just leave the dmg as a dmg and just mount it with hdid (etc) as well too. That is you don't have to expand the dmg's onto disk. -- This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
