In this article, we would focus on how to convert disk images to various formats using command-line utility qemu-img in Ubuntu distribution. Disk images are virtual hard disks which are used with virtual machines. These disk images are used to emulate disk storage devices. Furthermore depending on virtualization used, different disk images are utilized by different applications like QEMU/KVM, VirtualBox etc.

DMG is Mac OS X native disk image format while virtual machines (VmWare, Parallels or VirtualBox) are able to mount ISO images only. With AnyToISO program you can convert DMG to ISO and mount the resulting ISO image to your virtual machine (running Mac OS X). Converting a bootable ISO into a Virtual disk VHD/VMDK on Mac is almost the same with Windows. All you need is to open Terminal on your Mac and run commands. However, as mentioned earlier, you need to have VirtualBox app already installed on your Mac. Otherwise, you are unable to convert the ISO file to VHD/VMDK. Mounting DMG image files to Vmware, Palallels or VirtualBox on Windows & Mac. DMG is Mac OS X native disk image format while virtual machines (VmWare, Parallels or VirtualBox) are able to mount ISO images only. With AnyToISO program you can convert DMG to ISO and mount the resulting ISO image to your virtual machine (running Mac OS X).
