    There are programs for it but most people seem to have no success

    Get hold of a copy of Transmac. Handy HFS+ drive reader/writer and it also burns .DMG disks directly.

    I used it to do a copy of Leopard onto a DL disk recently.

    I used a program called UltraISO to convert the leopard .dmg to an .iso and it worked perfectly.

    There's the rub, I managed to burn with various software, bootable? no!
    Good luck with it.
