MacOS X Mountain Lion not working!
I downloaded a .dmg file of MacOS X Mountain Lion and everytime I try to use it starts it then says "Could not read from the boot medium! Please insert a bootable medium and reboot." Is the .dmg not suitable for this version or do i need to import an iso and a dmg or do i need to allocate more storage? Currently I'm allocating about 7400 MB and I'm using MacOS Sonoma.

Re: MacOS X Mountain Lion not working!
The .dmg is not, as you have found, a bootable image. You will need to create a bootable installer (an iso file) from the Installer application in the .dmg file.
