Mounting ancient disk images

Post by richmond62 » Wed Feb 24, 2021 12:22 pm

So, here I am, with an ancient disk image:

Authorware_3_Mac_CD.iso

and cannot for the life of me open the thing on
MacOS 11 . . .

That's a thought: I'll just transfer it to my Xubuntu laptop and get on with things.

Thank you.

That did, indeed, work: which makes me feel a bit negative about MacOS 11.

Is it a new M1 Mac?

Try this in the terminal?
sudo kmutil load -p /System/Library/Extensions/cd9660.kext

No: it's a 2018 Mac Mini.
