If you want to see what the package contains, try building dmg2img from here: http://vu1tur.eu.org/tools/ Use that to extract the HFS image from the package, then examine it one of the HFS tools from ports/emulators, But as others have mentioned, you may not be able to do much with the contents. -- Bob Bishop rb@gid.co.uk
