Mounting a journaled partition

[vincentjames501]

A long time ago I created a HFS+ partition with linux. It appears that I didn't do something correctly. It's a little to late to reformat it as I have nearly a 700GB on it of data. Below is the information as it appears in disk utility.

 

Name : disk1s2

Type : Volume

 

Disk Identifier : disk1s2

Mount Point : Not mounted

File System : Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

Connection Bus : SATA

Device Tree : IODeviceTree:/PCI0@0/SATA@1F,2/PMP@0

Writable : Yes

Capacity : 860.62 GB (860,618,448,896 Bytes)

Owners Enabled : No

Can Turn Owners Off : Yes

Can Be Formatted : Yes

Bootable : Yes

Supports Journaling : Yes

Journaled : No

Disk Number : 1

Partition Number : 2

 

Output of mount

 

I typed: mount /dev/disk1s2

output: mount: /dev/disk1s2: unknown special file or file system.

try "mount_hfs /dev/disk1s2"

I might be mistaken, but IMHO it should look like this:

mount_hfs /dev/diskXsY /Volumes

As mount point should also be specified (not only files system and device).

Oops, yeah. I would do it like this:

su (enter roots password)
mkdir /Volumes/NameOfTheDiskYouWantToMount
mount_hfs /dev/disk1s2 /Volumes/VolumeNameYouChoseInLastCommand

I get then when trying it.

 

 

mount_hfs /dev/disk1s2 /Volumes/Media
GetMasterBlock: Error 13 opening /dev/rdisk1s2
GetMasterBlock: Error 13 opening /dev/rdisk1s2
mount_hfs: Operation not permitted

Did you run it as root? (su)
