Not looking good.

Michael Jason Smiths suggestion (sent off list);

# mount -o loop -t iso9660 brxPPDsMFL7X_102.dmg macdir
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
       or too many mounted file systems
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)

Jims suggestion;

# modprobe -v hfs
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.3-7mdk/kernel/fs/hfs/hfs.ko.gz

# mount -o loop -t hfsplus brxPPDsMFL7X_102.dmg macdir
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
       or too many mounted file systems
       (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
         ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
