You really don’t need a separate CD or DVD burning application on your Mac OS X, especially if you want to do something as simple as burning an image to a CD or DVD. Mac OS X’s Disk Utility is all you need:

1. Minimize all your application windows and click an empty area of your desktop. Click the Go | Utilities menu option. In the resultant Finder window, click the Disk Utility icon to launch the program. You will see the interface shown in Figure 1.

2. Click the Burn button on the toolbar. This will bring up the Select Image to Burn dialog. Navigate and select a DMG or other image format that Disk Utility can work with. Select the Burn button.
3. Disk Utility will ask you to insert a blank disc, as shown in Figure 2. Insert a disc, and in a while, your image will be burnt to a disc.
