Stupid question, but does your Mac know how to mount ISO9660
filesystems normally? I seem to remember some versions of Mac OS
didn't understand them natively, and needed a special extension to do
so. Also, did you make sure to download the images in binary format? I
seem to remember some people were getting them as ASCII and
complaining quite a bit.
