+This project allows ordinary users to directly mount OS X disk images under
+Linux via FUSE. darling-dmg is part of Darling - http://www.darlinghq.org
+
+Without darling-dmg, the only way to do this would be to manually extract
+the DMG file, become root and mount the HFS+ filesystem as root. This is slow,
+wasteful and may even crash your system. The project's author has seen the
+Linux HFS+ implementation cause kernel crashes.
