UDZO Image Format
The UDZO Image is an UDIF zlib-compressed read-only image which can be mounted on Mac OSX. UDZO Images can be converted to read/write UDRW Images with hdiutil on Mac OSX:
hdiutil convert -format UDRW udzo.dmg -o udrw.dmg
To add checksums of the data in the provided UDZO Image and store them in the image asr on Mac OSX can be used:
asr -imagescan udzo.dmg
