How to mount an AES-encrypted .DMG file containing a FAT12 filesystem?
My question says it all: on Ubuntu, is there any way to mount a .dmg file (as produced by OS X's Disk Utility) that contains an AES-encrypted, FAT12 filesystem?
I've seen sporadic advice about how to mount .dmg files containing hfsplus filesystems, so I'd have thought the fat12 (aka, "msdos") filesystem would be even easier. The closest I've come is:
mount -oloop,encryption=aes-256 -t msdos privatedmg.dmg ~/mounted
But this gives me the error ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument
. I don't know much about linux filesystem mechanics, but am eager to learn!

mount does not support ~/mounted expansion i guess. try /home/YourName/mounted.

Thanks @LiYong, but using an absolute path gives the same error.

emm what's coming to my mind I can help you this way only:
If it's possible or if you're willing converting .dmg
to .img hfsplus
open a Terminal Ctrl + Alt +T and type:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install dmg2img
then install mountable manager, I use AcetoneISO:
sudo apt-get install acetoneiso
or Mountmanager:
sudo apt-get install mountmanager
firstly try to mount .dmg
using one of these packages, if no access you can still use converting tool mentioned above.
