Ok, after trying for quite some hours over a few nights and not getting anywhere, I finally have found a method for mounting Shrinkwrap images in OSX! No more booting into Classic!! Woo hoo!
Its as simple as this:
Download and install the latest release of Roxio Toast, either preview or release will work fine.
Open Toast and choose "mount image" from the utilities menu. Select your Shrinkwrap .img and it will appear on your desktop.
You CANNOT choose "disk image" from the GUI window then "select image" this will get fussy and result in not allowing you the option of mounting the image.
Just think of all the times you got chapped about not mounting those pesky Shrink wrap .img's and all along the solution was this easy. Don't worry I feel really dumb about this too.
NOTE!!!- Toast is rather finicky over which Shrinkwrap .img's it will choose to work with, it will mount some of them and will "gray out" others.
Could a "techie" look into this and see what the difference could be between two .img's which would cause Toast to behave this way?
I see no visible sign of discrepency issues.
Alternate method worth trying
Open Disc Copy and choose "convert image" from the "image" menu. Select the image and see how disc copy handles it. usually it will succesfully convert the image but disc copy will, "unexpectably quit". Dont worry, the image is in tact and mountable.
